Jagat Raj vs Rajinder Kumar & Another on 3 December, 2008<\/div>\n
 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH\n\n                      Criminal Miscellaneous No. M-47800 of 2004\n                                  Date of Decision: December 03, 2008\n\n\nJagat Raj\n                                                         .....PETITIONER(S)\n\n                                    VERSUS\n\nRajinder Kumar & Another\n                                                       .....RESPONDENT(S)<\/pre>\n

22.4.2003 passed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate,<\/p>\n
Rewari, summoning the petitioner and order passed by<\/p>\n
the Revisional Court dated 17.9.2004 (Annexure P-3).<\/p>\n
                  The      only        allegation           against            the<\/p>\n
petitioner is contained in Para 6 of the complaint<\/p>\n
and is to the following effect:-\n<\/p>\n
                  “That the accused by conniving with each other and with
\n                  illegal intention and with a view to fulfil the common
\n                  object, came to village Jatuwas after 5.00 O’Clock in the
\n                  evening on 24.1.2001 and threatened Hukam Chand, father
\n                  of the complainant and his mother Leela Devi and his wife

                  be crushed under the Jeep. On the spot, all the accused after
\n                  conniving, got the house of the complainant demolished
\n                  illegally by using hammers and in this demolition accused
\n                  No.3 to 5 demolished the house of the complainant as per

\n                  them and if anybody comes near them or causes obstruction
\n                  in the demolition of the house, he would shoot him.
\n                  Accused No.7 was showing his lathi….”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
                  In nutshell, as against the petitioner<\/p>\n
who    has     been     arrayed         as     accused        No.6      in        the<\/p>\n
complaint, allegation is that all the accused after<\/p>\n
conniving        got      the      house        of      the       complainant<\/p>\n
demolished illegally by using hammers and in this<\/p>\n
demolition, as per instructions of accused Nos.1 and<\/p>\n
2, accused No.6 (petitioner) took out his pistol and<\/p>\n
threatened that nobody should come near them and if<\/p>\n
anybody comes near them or causes obstruction in the<\/p>\n
demolition of the house, he would shoot him. Accused<\/p>\n
Nos.1 and 2 in the complaint are Block Development &<\/p>\n
Panchayat       Officer,         Rewari      Block,     and      Bimla       Rani,<\/p>\n
Sarpanch, Gram Panchayat, Jatuwas, District Rewari.<\/p>\n
                  Learned         counsel        for       the       petitioner<\/p>\n
contends      that     the       petitioner,         who    was      posted        as<\/p>\n
Assistant Sub Inspector at that point in time, was<\/p>\n
on duty under orders of his senior officers to give<\/p>\n
assistance       to    the       Block       Development         &   Panchayat<\/p>\n
Officer for removal of unauthorised construction. In<\/p>\n
this regard, reference has been made to Annexures<\/p>\n
P-4, P-5 and P-6.\n<\/p>\n
                  Learned counsel has further pointed<\/p>\n
out that the respondent-complainant has no regard<\/p>\n
for     law      in    so        much     as      after        unauthorized
\n Crl. Misc. No. M-47800 of 2004                                        [3]<\/p>\n
construction had been removed on 24.1.2001, the<\/p>\n
encroachment was made during the same night and<\/p>\n
FIR had to be lodged. FIR has been placed on<\/p>\n
record as Annexure P-7.\n<\/p>\n
                   The     other       argument       of     the     learned<\/p>\n
counsel       is    that       the     petitioner       was      acting        in<\/p>\n
discharge of his official duties and cognizance<\/p>\n
could be taken only after taking sanction of the<\/p>\n
authorities.\n<\/p>\n
                   I have considered the issue.\n<\/p>\n
                   It     is      not       in   dispute         that          the<\/p>\n
allegations against the petitioner are only to<\/p>\n
the effect noticed above. Gist of the allegations<\/p>\n
indicates that the petitioner was acting on the<\/p>\n
asking      of     the     Block        Development          &    Panchayat<\/p>\n
Officer who has been arrayed as accused No.1 in<\/p>\n
the complaint.\n<\/p>\n
                   Perusal        of     Annexure        P-4      indicates<\/p>\n
that vide Memo No.5264 dated 16.1.2007, the Block<\/p>\n
Development & Panchayat Officer asked the Station<\/p>\n
House Officer, Police Station, Sector 3 (Model<\/p>\n
Town), Rewari as under:-\n<\/p>\n
                         “On the aforementioned subject, you are requested
\n                   that kindly grant police help at 10.00 AM on 17.1.2000 to
\n                   remove the illegal encroachment of Rajnder son of Hukam
\n                   and Mahender son of Hukam Chand from the plots of Sh.
\n                   Guggan Singh son of Jagat Ram etc. in village Jatuwas, so
\n                   that the possession may be given.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
                   On     the        same    memo,        there       is        an\n\nendorsement          by     the       Inspector\/         Station        House\n Crl. Misc. No. M-47800 of 2004                                      [4]\n\n\n\n<\/pre>\n
Officer, Police Station, Model Town, Rewari to<\/p>\n
the effect that “ASI Jagat Singh to comply with”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
i.e. petitioner.\n<\/p>\n
                  Annexure         P-5     is    a   rapt    entered      at\n\nSerial      No.16        in      Police    Station,         Model     Town,\n\n<\/pre>\n
Rewari, to the effect that the Block Development<\/p>\n
&     Panchayat         Officer     had     come      to     the    police<\/p>\n
station and as per order dated 16.1.2001, the<\/p>\n
possession         of      plots    allotted         to    Harijans       was<\/p>\n
required       to     be      restored      and      encroachment         was<\/p>\n
required to be removed. The petitioner alongwith<\/p>\n
Ram      Nath,       Head         Constable;          Niaz     Mohammed,<\/p>\n
Constable        and       Hawa    Singh,       Constable      left       for<\/p>\n
Jatuwas for help with the Block Development &<\/p>\n
Panchayat Officer.\n<\/p>\n
                  Annexure         P-6     is    a   Rapt    entered      at\n\nSerial       No.17         in     the     police          station     which\n\n<\/pre>\n
indicates that at about 5.30 P.M., the petitioner<\/p>\n
alongwith other officials returned after giving<\/p>\n
police       help       in       village        Jatuwas.      The     Block<\/p>\n
Development & Panchayat Officer had done his job<\/p>\n
at the spot.\n<\/p>\n
                  Considering               the            facts          and<\/p>\n
circumstances that flow from the Annexures, it<\/p>\n
becomes evident that the petitioner was directed<\/p>\n
by the Inspector\/ Station House Officer, Sector –<\/p>\n
3, Rewari, to comply with order Annexure P-4. In
\n Crl. Misc. No. M-47800 of 2004                                           [5]<\/p>\n
compliance of the order, the petitioner left the<\/p>\n
police station as is reflected from Annexure P-5<\/p>\n
and after completing the task returned back to<\/p>\n
the police station as is made out from a perusal<\/p>\n
of order, Annexure P-6. It is not in dispute that<\/p>\n
no injury had been caused by the petitioner to<\/p>\n
any person.\n<\/p>\n
                   The        only        logical      conclusion              that<\/p>\n
flows from perusal of the documents is that the<\/p>\n
petitioner was discharging his official duties.<\/p>\n
The encroachment was required to be removed under<\/p>\n
orders passed by a competent authority. It was on<\/p>\n
an application made by the Block Development &<\/p>\n
Panchayat          Officer         that     police      help       was     given<\/p>\n
seemingly not only to protect the officer who was<\/p>\n
required to execute the job but also to ensure<\/p>\n
that     obstruction             is    removed        and    the     original<\/p>\n
owners       are     put      in      possession.       This       being        the<\/p>\n
factual       position,            I    find     that       the     complaint<\/p>\n
against        the     petitioner               has    been       filed         for<\/p>\n
malafide       reasons.            Even    if    all    the       allegations<\/p>\n
made in the complaint are accepted, no offence<\/p>\n
can     be    said       to      have      been       committed       by        the<\/p>\n
petitioner.          The      petitioner          was       bound    by        his<\/p>\n
official commitment to protect the officials and<\/p>\n
also ensure that work of removal of encroachment<\/p>\n
was carried out. In my considered opinion, the
\n Crl. Misc. No. M-47800 of 2004                                       [6]<\/p>\n
complainant          being       aggrieved     by    the       removal       of<\/p>\n
encroachment          was        agitated    and     so        as   to     put<\/p>\n
pressure        on     the       authorities,        has        filed      the<\/p>\n
complaint. It becomes evident that it is only so<\/p>\n
as to harass the petitioner that the complaint<\/p>\n
has been filed. Continuance of such proceedings<\/p>\n
would result in demoralising the public servant<\/p>\n
who has merely performed his official function.<\/p>\n
So as to prevent abuse of process of Court by the<\/p>\n
complainant,          the        prayer   made      in    the       petition<\/p>\n
deserves to be allowed.\n<\/p>\n
                  On the other count also, I find that<\/p>\n
cognizance could be taken by the Magistrate only<\/p>\n
after      grant      of     sanction.        The    petitioner            was<\/p>\n
discharging          his    official        duties       and    under      the<\/p>\n
circumstances,              sanction         was     required              from<\/p>\n
appropriate authorities before taking cognizance.<\/p>\n
This having not been done, the proceedings as<\/p>\n
against the petitioner are required to be quashed<\/p>\n
as they are rendered without jurisdiction.<\/p>\n
                  In view of the above, this petition<\/p>\n
is allowed. Order dated 22.4.2003 passed by the<\/p>\n
Chief     Judicial         Magistrate,      Rewari,       summoning         the<\/p>\n
petitioner and order passed by the Revisional Court<\/p>\n
dated 17.9.2004 (Annexure P-3) are hereby set aside.<\/p>\n
