Petition is filed<\/p>\n<p>under section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure to<\/p>\n<p>quash the proceedings wherein, steps were initiated<\/p>\n<p>under section 82 and 83 of Code of Criminal Procedure<\/p>\n<p>for the failure of the petitioner to appear.<\/p>\n<p>    2.   Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>and the learned Public Prosecutor were heard.<\/p>\n<p>    3.    Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>submitted that ingredients of an offence under section<\/p>\n<p>420 of Indian Penal Code is not attracted, as is clear<\/p>\n<p>from  Annexure-A1   complaint  and   therefore  learned<\/p>\n<p>Magistrate was not justified in taking cognizance of<\/p>\n<p>the offence  as against the petitioner.    It is argued<\/p>\n<p>that  cognizance was taken on the allegation that first<\/p>\n<p>accused issued a post-dated cheque which was later<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">Crl.M.C.3272\/2009              2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>dishonoured and it was found that it was not issued in the<\/p>\n<p>account maintained by the first accused but second accused<\/p>\n<p>and even if that allegation is correct it will not attract<\/p>\n<p>an offence as against the petitioner.    Learned counsel also<\/p>\n<p>submitted     that  due  to the  mistake  in    communication<\/p>\n<p>between the petitioner and the counsel, and as he was not<\/p>\n<p>aware of the posting date,      he could not appear and it<\/p>\n<p>resulted in initiating steps under section 82 and 83 of<\/p>\n<p>Code of Criminal Procedure.\n<\/p>\n<p>      4.   Annexure A1 complaint shows that the allegation is<\/p>\n<p>that    the    two  accused approached    first   respondent,<\/p>\n<p>complainant and borrowed Rs.1,00,000\/- for their business<\/p>\n<p>purpose promising to repay the same within one week and<\/p>\n<p>before the expiry of the period first accused came to his<\/p>\n<p>shop    and   handed over  a cheque  issued  in  the  account<\/p>\n<p>maintained in Perumbavoor Urban Co-operative Bank and when<\/p>\n<p>it was presented for encashment it was found that it was<\/p>\n<p>not issued in the account maintained by the first accused<\/p>\n<p>but by the second accused and signed by petitioner and<\/p>\n<p>therefore both the accused committed the offence under<\/p>\n<p>sections 406, 420, 468 read with section 34 of Indian Penal<\/p>\n<p>Code.    The main crux of the allegation is that as promised<\/p>\n<p>later first accused approached    first respondent and handed<\/p>\n<p>over a cheque for repayment of the money borrowed and later<\/p>\n<p>it was found out that the said cheque was signed by first<\/p>\n<p>accused in the account maintained by the second accused and<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">Crl.M.C.3272\/2009               3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>both the accused thereby committed the offence.      There is<\/p>\n<p>no specific allegation that when the amount was borrowed<\/p>\n<p>there was a dishonest intention to cheat.     The argument of<\/p>\n<p>the learned counsel is that         in such circumstances as<\/p>\n<p>cheque was issued from the account of the second accused<\/p>\n<p>petitioner cannot be proceeded with.\n<\/p>\n<p>      5.     Petitioner is entitled to raise the contention<\/p>\n<p>before    the    learned Magistrate  and  seek  an  order   of<\/p>\n<p>discharge under section 245 of Code of Criminal Procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Petitioner      is  also  entitled  to  file  an   application<\/p>\n<p>explaining the reason why he did not appear when the case<\/p>\n<p>was posted for appearance and to recall the warrant issued.<\/p>\n<p>I find no reason to believe that         Magistrate will not<\/p>\n<p>recall the warrant or will not release him on bail, if a<\/p>\n<p>petition is filed for bail.     When an accused surrenders and<\/p>\n<p>files an application for bail, Magistrate is expected to<\/p>\n<p>pass orders in the application without delay.         In such<\/p>\n<p>circumstance, I find that no direction is warranted.<\/p>\n<p>      Petition is disposed granting liberty to the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>to approach the learned Magistrate to recall the warrant<\/p>\n<p>and also to release him on bail and to file a petition<\/p>\n<p>under section      245  of Code  of  Criminal  Procedure,  for<\/p>\n<p>discharge raising all the contentions raised herein.<\/p>\n<p>                                      M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR<br \/>\n                                                 JUDGE<br \/>\ntpl\/-\n<\/p>\n<p>M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, J.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>     &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;\n<\/p>\n<p>      W.P.(C).NO. \/06\n<\/p>\n<p>     &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>         JUDGMENT<\/p>\n<p>     SEPTEMBER,2006<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Muhammed Iqubal vs O.R.Krishnakumar And Another on 12 October, 2009 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM Crl.MC.No. 3272 of 2009() 1.
