"8. The questions involved in this appeal are now squarely answered by the two recent decisions of this Court in the case of Raj Kishore Prasad v. State of Bihar ( 1996) 4 SCC 495 : (1996 AIR SCW 2273 : AIR 1996 SC 1931 : 1996 Cr.L.J. 2523) and a three Judge Bench judgment of this Court in the case of Ranjit Singh v. State of Punjab (1998) 7 SCC 149 : (1998 AIR SCW 3249 : AIR 1998 SC 3148 : 1998 Cr.L.J. 4618). In the latter case their Lordships have considered the earlier two-judges Bench decision of this Court in Raj Kishore Prasad's case (supra).

9. After going through the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure and the aforesaid two judgments and on examining the order dated 10-6-1997 passed by the Magistrate, we have no hesitation to come to the conclusion that the Magistrate could not have issued process against those persons who may have been named in the F.I.R. as accused persons, but not chargesheeted in the chargesheet that was filed by the police under Section 173 of Cr.P.C.

10. So far as those persons against whom chargesheet has not been filed. They can be arrayed as "accused persons" in exercise of powers under Section 319. Cr.P.C. When some evidence or matierials are brought on record in course of trial or they could also be arrayed as "accused persons" only when a reference is made either by the Magistrate while passing an order of commitment or by the learned Sessions Judge to the High Court and the High Court, on examining the material, comes to the conclusion that sufficient materials exist against them even though the police might not have filed chargesheet, as has been explained in the latter three-judge Bench decision. Neither of the contingencies has arisen in the case in hand."
