IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.22287 of 2000 Md. Mashuque, Son of Abul Shakoor, resident of Village- Turk Tolia, Police Station-Gaighat, District- Muzaffarpur at present residing at premises No.33, P.M. Basti, 3rd By Lane, Shibpur, Howrah 711 102 ----------------- Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 05 04-08-2010 Today again when the case was called out, none appeared on behalf of the petitioner either to press this petition or to make a prayer for adjournment. On 2.8.2010 also none had appeared on behalf of the petitioner. However, the case was adjourned for the day with an indication that no further adjournment shall be granted. While adjourning the case, the Court also noticed that in this case interim order of stay was continuing since 7.9.2001. In absence of learned counsel for the petitioner, I have heard Sri A.M.P.Mehta, learned Addl.Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the State. I have also perused the materials available on record. The sole petitioner, while invoking inherent jurisdiction of this Court under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, has prayed for quashing of an order dated 23.07.1999, whereby the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Muzaffarpur has taken cognizance of offence under Sections 376/114 of the Indian Penal Code in Gaighat P.S. Case No.126 of 1998. Perusal of the impugned order and materials makes it clear that while passing the order, the learned Magistrate has not committed any error. Accordingly, the Court is satisfied that it is not a fit case for 2 exercising inherent jurisdiction in favour of the petitioner and the petition stands rejected. In view of rejection of this petition, interim order of stay stands automatically vacated. Let a copy of this order be sent to the court below forthwith. NKS/- ( Rakesh Kumar, J )
