THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.11445 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approaches this Court invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. challenging the dismissal of the discharge petition filed by him in Crl.M.P.No.1991 of 2009 in C.C.No.302 of 2007 by the learned Judicial First Class Magistrate, Palamaner. This Court perused the material on record and heard the arguments. The petitioner filed the impugned petition before the court below seeking to discharge him from the offence under Sections 353, 212, 216, 186 and 188 IPC. The learned trial Judge allowed the petition for the offence under Sections 353, 216 and 212 are concerned, but took cognizance as far as offence under Sections 186 and 188 IPC are concerned. On perusal of the record, this Court is of the view that Section 188 of IPC is not attracted since there is no promulgation of any orders by a competent authority. So, the said section is not attracted as far as the petitioner is concerned. But as far as Section 186 of IPC is concerned, the petitioner herein obstructed the officials from discharging their public duty and some more allegations are there in the charge sheet. Considering the same, the petitioner is directed to face the trial only for the offence under Section 186 of IPC is concerned. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions filed along with the criminal petition, if any, shall stand closed. ___________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 16th November 2011 Rns
