2. The petitioners have put to challenge in the present
application filed under section 482 of the CrPC, the order dated
20.11.2019 passed by the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate,
Biharsharif, whereby he has taken cognizance of the offences Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.21466 of 2023 dt.16-10-2023
punishable under sections 341, 323, 307, 504/34 of the Indian
Penal Code.
3. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioners that in the
FIR, nothing specific has been attributed against these
petitioners. It has further been submitted that, even if, the
allegations made in the FIR are taken to be true at their face
value they do not prima facie constitute any offence against the
petitioners.
4. I have perused the FIR. On reading of the FIR, it
transpires that according to the allegation, the occurrence had
taken place during the course of construction of a house. There
is specific allegation in the FIR of assault made by the accused
persons because of which the mother of the informant sustained
injuries. The submission on behalf of the petitioners that no
offence is made out based on what has been alleged in the FIR,
in the court's opinion, is untenable. I do not find any legal
infirmity in the impugned order dated 20.11.2019 taking
cognizance of the offences punishable under sections 341, 323,
307, 504/34 of the Indian Penal Code.
5. This application is, accordingly, dismissed.
6. The dismissal of the present application, however,
shall not prejudice the petitioners' case at any subsequent stage Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.21466 of 2023 dt.16-10-2023
i.e. at the stage of framing of charge and during the course of
trial.
