2 5.8.2011 Heard learned counsel for the

petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf

of the informant.

This application has been filed for

quashing the order taking cognizance dated

18.9.2008, passed by the Chief Judicial

Magistrate, Katihar as well as the entire

criminal proceeding instituted against the

petitioner under Section 376 of the Indian

Penal Code in Falka P.S. Case No. 66 of 2007.

Learned counsel for the petitioner

submits that this case has been instituted due

to a land dispute. In fact the petitioner is

not at all responsible for the fact that the

victim lady got pregnant and delivered a child.

It is further submitted that he had appeared

and filed an application (Annexure-3 series)

before the Deputy Inspector General of Police,

Purnea that he is ready that the D.N.A. test

should be done in order to determine the

parentage of the child. The Deputy Inspector
2

General of Police, Purnea had perhaps ordered

the Superintendent of Police, Purnea to ensure

that the D.N.A. test is done. It is further

submitted that the entire case is false,

fabricated and maliciously filed.

All these aspects of the matter should

be considered by the Court below before framing

of charges. This application is disposed of

with the aforesaid observations.
