Petitioner is the<\/p>\n<p>complainant. Case is that she is the daughter of Alikunju, and<\/p>\n<p>first respondent\/accused is her brother and Alikunju died leaving<\/p>\n<p>behind petitioner and four sisters apart from the accused as his<\/p>\n<p>legal heirs and at the time of his death, Alikunju owned a fiat<\/p>\n<p>Sienna Car bearing No.KL2\/J.6622 and a tanker lorry KRQ 6118<\/p>\n<p>which were in his possession and accused, without her consent,<\/p>\n<p>disposed them and he thereby committed offences under Section<\/p>\n<p>465, 405 and 406 of IPC.\n<\/p>\n<p>      2. Learned counsel appearing for petitioner was heard. The<\/p>\n<p>argument of the learned counsel is that it was with the intention<\/p>\n<p>to cheat, accused transferred the vehicle on the date of death of<\/p>\n<p>their father and therefore he committed the offences under<\/p>\n<p>Section 465, 405 and 406 of IPC.\n<\/p>\n<p>      3.    On hearing the learned counsel and going through<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">Crrp 177\/2008                    2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the order passed by the learned Magistrate, I do not find any<\/p>\n<p>reason to interfere with the dismissal of the complaint under<\/p>\n<p>Section 203 of Code of Criminal Procedure. Even according to<\/p>\n<p>petitioner, on the death of Alikunju, apart from petitioner, the<\/p>\n<p>accused also inherited the property including the vehicles. It<\/p>\n<p>cannot be said that accused has no right over the vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>Definitely he inherited double the share of petitioner and her<\/p>\n<p>sisters. In such circumstances, by sale of the vehicles, it cannot<\/p>\n<p>be said that accused committed the offences alleged. Claim of<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner could only be for her share in the properties. In<\/p>\n<p>such circumstances, I do not find any illegality or irregularity in<\/p>\n<p>the order passed by the learned Magistrate.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Revision Petition is dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                            M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, JUDGE<\/p>\n<p>lgk\/-<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Seenath vs State Of Kerala on 14 October, 2008 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM Crl.Rev.Pet.No. 177 of 2008() 1.
