It was<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                         4<\/span><br \/>\nbecause of the intervention of the neighbours<br \/>\nthat she was saved from the clutches of the<br \/>\npetitioners, otherwise she would have been done<br \/>\naway with by the petitioners. The petitioners,<br \/>\nwhile having, had threatened to kill her and her<br \/>\nfamily members. Her report was registered as<br \/>\nReport No. 10 in the Daily Diary Register at 9.30<br \/>\na.m.\n<\/p>\n<p>     It appears that dissatisfied with the inaction<br \/>\nof the police in not proceeding further on the<br \/>\nreport, the Chief Judicial Magistrate Poonch, too,<br \/>\nwas approached, who referred the case to the<br \/>\nPolice under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C.\n<\/p>\n<p>       It was indicated in the complaint made to<br \/>\nthe learned Magistrate that the petitioners had<br \/>\ncaused internal and external injuries to Dalip<br \/>\nKour and blood had oozed from her mouth<br \/>\nbecause of the injuries. Finding Dalip Kour<br \/>\nunstable in the Government Hospital Poonch,<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                           5<\/span><br \/>\nshe was referred to the Medical College Hospital,<br \/>\nJammu, on 13th of August, 2008. Keeping in<br \/>\nview the condition of the injured, blood too had<br \/>\nto be transfused in the hospital, where she<br \/>\nhowever, died on 16.08.2008.\n<\/p>\n<p>    Petitioners&#8217; counsel&#8217;s submission that the<br \/>\nFIR was based on incorrect facts, is found to be<br \/>\nwithout merit, in view of the report lodged by the<br \/>\ndeceased    herself   with   the   police  post  on<br \/>\n24.07.2008 indicating that she had been beaten<br \/>\nby the petitioners. The facts indicated in the<br \/>\nreport of the deceased gets support from the<br \/>\nsubsequent events of her having been admitted<br \/>\nwith injuries initially in District Hospital Poonch<br \/>\nand    thereafter  in   the  Government      Medical<br \/>\nCollege Hospital, Jammu, where she ultimately<br \/>\ndied.\n<\/p>\n<p>    The other plea of the petitioners&#8217; counsel<br \/>\nthat it was Amrit Kour and not Dalip Kour, who<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                           6<\/span><br \/>\nhad died, too, is found to be without any<br \/>\nsubstance, in that, one of the documents placed<br \/>\non the records by the petitioners specifically<br \/>\nindicates Dalip Kour, wife of Jaswant Singh, to<br \/>\nhave been admitted in District Hospital Poonch<br \/>\nwith injuries over her both forearms and at the<br \/>\nhead of the ring finger, and in this view of the<br \/>\nmatter, it cannot be said that Dalip Kour had not<br \/>\ndied, when the FIR specifically indicates her to<br \/>\nhave been injured, admitted initially in District<br \/>\nHospital Poonch and thereafter in Government<br \/>\nMedical College Hospital Jammu, where she had<br \/>\ndied.\n<\/p>\n<p>    That apart, mere incorrect mention of the<br \/>\nname of the deceased in one of the documents,<br \/>\nwould not, of itself, affect the veracity of the facts<br \/>\nstated in the FIR, which eloquently indicates<br \/>\nDalip Kour to have been injured and later died in<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                          7<\/span><br \/>\nGovernment Medical College Hospital Jammu on<br \/>\nAugust 16, 2008.\n<\/p>\n<p>     All the pleas raised by the petitioners&#8217;<br \/>\ncounsel, disputing the facts appearing in the<br \/>\nFIR,   are   such,  which   are  required   to  be<br \/>\nconsidered initially by the investigating agency<br \/>\nand later by the Court, in case the investigating<br \/>\nagency finds the petitioners to have committed<br \/>\none or the other offence.\n<\/p>\n<p>     Petitioners&#8217; plea that   no offence     under<br \/>\nSection 304 RPC can be said to have been<br \/>\ncommitted by them, on the basis of the facts<br \/>\nappearing in the FIR, cannot be examined by<br \/>\nthis Court at this stage in the absence of<br \/>\nrequisite records. Even otherwise, it is the Court<br \/>\nseized of the case which has to first examine this<br \/>\nquestion and, in this view of the matter, the<br \/>\npetitioners&#8217; plea needs to be rejected at this<br \/>\nstage.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                          8<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        For all what has been said above I do not<br \/>\nfind any merit in this petition, which is,<br \/>\naccordingly, dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                    (J.
