Ajudhya Prashad Vs. the State

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Mar-19-1952

Reported in: 1953CriLJ119

ORDERShinde, C.J.1. The only point raised in this case is that, the Sub-Divisional Magistrate was wrong in forfeiting security without issuing notice to the parties concerned. It appears that on 13.11.1950 the surety was asked to produce the accused before the court on 22.12.1950. On that date, neither the accused nor the surety was present in the court. Hence the Sub-Divisional Magistrate forfeited the security. Against that order, an appeal was preferred before the District Magistrate. That appeal was dismissed, and the order of the trial court was confirmed. Consequently the surety has filed this revision.2. Section 514, Sub-section (1) of the Criminal Procedure Code reads as follows:Whenever it is proved to the satisfaction of the court, by which a bond under this Code has been taken, or of the court of a Presidency Magistrate or of the Magistrate of the First Class, or, when the bond is for appearance before a court to the satisfaction of such court, that such bond has been forfei...

State Vs. Mangilal Shankarlal Jaiswal and anr.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Mar-10-1952

Reported in: 1952CriLJ1425

ORDERA.H. Khan, J.1. This is an application which is moved by the learned Government Advocate, for cancellation of a bail granted to the accused by the District Magistrate, Mandsaur, on 5th July 19S1, on the ground that the learned District Magistrate granted an anticipatory bail which is not warranted by law.2. Mr. Karanjkar counsel for the non-applicants has filed a copy of an order of the Sessions Judge, Mandsaur, dated 2.11.51 which shows that both the non-applicants wore released on bail after their appearance before the Sessions Judge. In view of this later order, it is argued that this application loses much of its force. But the point being one of general importance, I may state that in case No. 10-11 of 2003, Criminal Provision Judicial Committee, Huzar Darbar Gwalior, reported in the Gwalior Law Reporter 340 of 2003, June 1947, I had occasion to consider the proposition of an anticipatory bail and, after giving my reasons in, detail, I came to the conclusion that it could be ...

The State Vs. Kesari Mal

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Mar-06-1952

Reported in: 1953CriLJ441

ORDERDixit, J.1. This is a reference by the learned Sessions Judge of Gwalior recommending that an order passed by the Sub-Divisional Magistrate Antari granting anticipatory bail to Kesarimal who apprehends arrest for an offence under the Essential Supplies (Temporary Powers) Act, 1946, be set aside.2. This reference must be rejected on the short ground that, if the learned Sessions Judge thinks that the order of bail passed by the Sub-Divisional Magistrate was illegal or improper, the Sessions Judge himself has the power under Section 497(5) of the Criminal P.C. to cancel the bail. The provisions in the Essential Supplies Temporary Powers Act with regard to bail do not any way affect the discretion vested in the Sessions Judge under Section 497(5) in the matter of cancellation of bail. That being so, it seems to me that it was wholly unnecessary for the Sessions Judge to make this reference to this Court for passing an order with regard to the cancellation of bail. The Sessions Judge ...

The prosecution story was that Mst. Konsa, a Rajput widow, aged 24 years, was pregnant, & on 5th January 1950 gave birth to an illegitimate child who was soon throttled and Mst. Konsa's uncle Kehari Singh took the dead body of the child and threw it in a well in village Semari, P.S. Ghatigaon, District Gird. Mst.

Pitambar Das and ors. Vs. State

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Mar-03-1952

Reported in: 1953CriLJ109

ORDERDixit, J.1. This is a petition to revise an order passed by the Sessions Judge, Gwalior, in an appeal under Section 476(B) of the Cr. P. Code, directing that a complaint for the prosecution of the applicants for giving false evidence be filed before the City Magistrate, Lashkar. It appears from the record that the proceedings under Section 476 of the Code arose out of a Civil suit disposed of by the City Civil Judge, Lashkar. After the disposal of the suit, one Rampyaribai who was a party to the suit applied to the City Civil Judge that the applicants who had appeared in that Civil suit as witnesses be prosecuted for giving false evidence. The learned Civil Judge refused to make a complaint against the applicants. Thereupon, Rampyaribai appealed to the Sessions Judge, Gwalior. A notice of the appeal was given to the applicants and on 26.2.51, the learned Sessions Judge after hearing the parties passed an order expressing the opinion that a prima facie case had been made out for th...
