Reported in: 1992CriLJ579; I(1992)DMC46; 1992(0)MPLJ58

P.N.S. Chouhan, J.1. The question is whether in absence of facts essential to constitute valid marriage in an application under Section 125 Cr. P.C. the Court can award interim compensation in favour of the spouse?2. Non-applicant No. 1 Reshmabai conceived as a result of her pre-marital affair with the petitioner whose reluctance to own his involvement landed him in the dock to answer charge of rape on a report lodged by Resha's mother in the qolice station. This pressure tactics worked and in order to wriggle out of this guagmire, the petitioner accepted the lady and the infant child non-applicant No. 2. who had come in the world by this time by exchangeing of garlands in Gayatri temple. The criminal case naturally ended in acquittal. But this tenuous tie could not last long and non-applicant No. 1 was deserted giving rise to her application under Section 125 Cr. P.C. for maintenance to herself and her son non-applicant No. 2. In that Misc. Criminal case No. 61/89 vide order dated 16....

Rampalsingh Vs. the State of Madhya Pradesh

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Sep-05-1991

Reported in: 1992CriLJ3745

ORDERP.N. Singh, J.1. Ostensibly, challenge is to the charge framed as per impugned order against the accused/petitioner under Section 379, IPC. Shri Bhargava, learned counsel appearing for him, has, however, given a new twist to the case and has contended seriously that the institution of the prosecution was itself void and, therefore, there was no scope for trial Court to frame any charge.2. To a certain extent, Shri Bhargava is right because the prosecution concerns theft of electricity and yet the special provision of Section 39 of Indian Electricity Act, 1910, for short, the 'Act', has apparently been over-i looked in passing the impugned order. It is conceded very fairly and rightly by Shri Khot that the trial Court should have added also Section 39 of the Act to the charge framed under Section 379, IPC', to make the charge clearly understandable to the accused/petitioner. Apparently, Section 39 is explanatory of Section 379, IPC when that is applied to theft of electrical energy...

The facts leading to this revision petition in short are that the plaintiff filed a suit for possession of a house situated in Megh-nagar against the present petitioner on the basis of the title of the house. The case of the plaintiff was that eight years before the suit the house was given to the defendant for his residence as licensee with a condition that the house would be vacated by the defendant upon demand by the plaintiff.

But the plaintiff did not agree to sell the house and instead demanded vacant possession of the house. Thereafter after serving a legal notice the plaintiff filed the suit on 16-8-1988.3.
