S.B. Cr. Revision Petition No.149/2000 State of Raj. Vs. Mahendra Kumar Dated : 04.03.2010 HON'BLE MR. MAHESH BHAGWATI,J. Mr. GS Fauzdar PP for the State. Mr. Hem Singh for the accused non- petitioner. *** Challenge in this criminal revision petition is to the order dated 24th February, 2000 whereby the Special Judge, Prevention of Atrocities of SC/ST Cases, Jaipur discharged the accused non- petitioner Mahendra Kumar of the offence under Sections 456, 354 and Section 3(i) (xi) of SC/ST Prevention of Atrocities Act. Having considered the submissions made at the bar and carefully perused the relevant material on record including the impugned order dated 24th February, 2000, it is noticed that the witnesses Badri Narayan, Ganga Sahay and Boduram did not support the prosecution case. The learned Special Judge, has rightly arrived at a conclusion that the facts and statements of the witnesses did not disclose any offence under Sections 456, 354 and Section 3(i)(xi) of SC/ST Prevention of Atrocities Act to have been comitted by accused Mahendr Kumar. Police also did not record the statements with bonafides. The impugned order seems to be just and proper and suffers from no infirmity. Since the impugned order does not suffer from any -2- illegality or infirmity, it warrants no intervention. For the reasons stated above, the criminal revision petition filed by the State being bereft of merit stands dismissed. (MAHESH BHAGWATI)J. Pcg
