Court: Orissa

Decided on: Apr-29-2005

Reported in: 2005(II)OLR175

S. Barman Roy, C.J.1. This appeal is directed against the judgment of acquittal passed by the Judicial Magistrate First Class, Jajpur Road in ICC No. 13 of 1982 acquitting the respondents from charges under Sections 161/342/384, IPC in a complaint case.

Court: Orissa

Decided on: Apr-29-2005

Reported in: 2005(II)OLR178

This appeal is directed against the judgment dated 18.4.1987 passed by the learned Sessions Judge, Koraput, Jeypore allowing Criminal Appeal Nos. 43 and 51 of 1986 whereby conviction of the respondents by the trial Court was set aside. This appeal is pending in this Court since 1987, that too it is an appeal against the order of acquittal. Of course none is available for the respondents. Since the appeal was filed in this Court and about 18 years' time has elapsed, hence I reject the prayer made on behalf of the learned counsel for the appellant for time.2. The respondents were prosecuted in a complaint case on the charges of defamation. Prosecution story as alleged by the complainant/appellant before the Magistrate in brief is that accused party in a representation before the Sub-Divisional Officer, Malkangiri on 28.12.1982 and another on 30.12.1982 addressed to the Superintendent of Police, Koraput falsely alleged that strangers were visiting the house of the ap...
