Chinnamalli vs Natarajan on 4 February, 2010<\/div>\n
       \n\n  \n\n  \n\n \n \n IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS\n\nDATED 04.02.2010\n\nCORAM\n\nTHE HONOURABLE MS. JUSTICE R. MALA\n\nCRL.A.NO.1777 OF 2002\n\n\nChinnamalli\n.. Appellant\n\nVs\n\nNatarajan\nVilage Administrative Officer.\n..Respondent\n\nPrayer: Criminal appeal filed under Section  378 Cr..C. Against the judgment passed in C.C.No.21 of 1998 dated 18.07.2002 on the file of learned Judicial Magistrate IV, Tirupathhur , Vellore District acquitting the respondent nad praying to setaside the judgment .\n\t\n\n\t\tFor Appellant :  Mr. K. J. Senthilkumar\n\n\t\tFor Respondent: Mr. Karthik for\n\t\t\t\t  Mr.T.S. Gopalan.\t\n\n\nJUDGMENT\n<\/pre>\n
\tThis Criminal appeal arises out of the judgment passed by Judicial Magistrate, Thirupathur, Vellore District on 18.7.2002 exonerating charges levelled against the accused under Sections 165A<\/a>, 166<\/a>, 167<\/a>,170<\/a> IPC and acquitting the accused.\n<\/p>\n
\t2. That the appellant herein filed a complaint stating that she is a legally wedded wife of one Chamudi  and her marriage has been performed and registered on 5th June 1987  and they are having one Minor male child . The  Government is granting family welfare fund for the poor people . Since the kartha of the family died and the appellant being a poor woman, she is entitled for the family welfare fund granted by the Government.\n<\/p>\n
\t2. The accused is the village administrative Officer and he knows very well that the appellant and her son  alone are entitled to the above said family welfare fund, but he falsely represented that one Rajammal is the wife of deceased Chamudi to the Tahsildar in favour of the above said Rajammal. So the appellant gave application before the sub collector, Thirupathur on 7.10.1996, but no action has been taken. Hence she come forward with this private complainant that the accused is liable to convicted under Sections 165 A, 166, 167, 170, 171 and  171B(ii) of IPC<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n
\t3. The learned Magistrate after recording sworn statement took cognizance against the accused under Sections 165 A, 166, 167 and 170 IPC<\/a>.  The learned Magistrate after  following the procedure and examining the witnesses P.W.1 to P.W.6 and Ex.P1 to P6, exonerated the accused from the charges levelled against him under the Sections 165 A, 166, 167 and 170 IPC<\/a> and acquitted the  respondent.\n<\/p>\n
\t4. The learned counsel appearing for the appellant would contend that the marriage between the complainant and the deceased Chamudi has been proved by way of marking Ex.A1 marriage invitation and Ex.A5 Marriage certificate.  Her husband Chamudi was died.  Since her husband was expired, she is entitled for the family welfare fund granted by Government for poor people, but false certificate has been issued in favour of one Rajammal  facilitating her to receive family welfare fund.  Hence the accused\/respondent is guilty under the above said  provisions.\n<\/p>\n
\t5. At this juncture the learned counsel appearing for the respondent\/accused would contend that the charge has been framed against this accused under Section 165 A which has been already repealed in pursuance of the amended act repealed by the Prevention of Corruption Act<\/a> 1988.  Since the alleged occurrence has been taken place after the year 1988, so the trial Court has committed  error in taking cognizance of the accused  under Section 165<\/a> A of the Act.\n<\/p>\n
\t6. He further submitted that there is no evidence to show that accused is guilty under Sections 166<\/a>, 167<\/a> and 170<\/a> of IPC. The learned Sessions Judge after considering all these aspects in a proper perspective, came to this correct conclusion.  Hence he prayed for dismissal of this appeal.\n<\/p>\n
\t7.It is appropriate to consider Sections 161<\/a>,165<\/a> and 165<\/a> A of IPC  which reads as follows:\n<\/p>\n
“Section 161<\/a>:Public servant taking gratification other than legal remuneration in respect of an official act. (Repealed by the Prevention of Corruption Act<\/a>, 1988 (49 of 1988), section 31<\/a>.)”\n<\/p>\n
“Section 165<\/a>: Public servant obtaining valuable thing, without consideration , from person concerned  in proceeding or business transacted by such public servant. – {Repealed by the Prevention of Corruption Act<\/a>, 1988 (49 of 1988), Section31)”\n<\/p>\n
“Section 165-A<\/a>: “Punishment for abetment of offences defined in Section 161<\/a> or Section 165<\/a>. -[Repealed by the Prevention of Corruption Act<\/a>,  1988 (49 of 1988), Section 31<\/a>]”\n<\/p>\n
 While perusing these acts, Sections 161<\/a>, 165<\/a> and  165(A)<\/a>IPC  were repealed by Prevention of Corruption Act<\/a> 1988, so the trial court has committed error in taking cognizance under Section 165 A. The offence under Section 165 A has not been proved by the appellant herein.  So the argument advanced by the learned counsel for the appellant that the respondent is  guilty under Section 165<\/a> A IPC does not merit acceptance.\n<\/p>\n
\t8. Now this court has to decide whether the respondent is guilty under Sections 166<\/a>,167<\/a> and 170<\/a> IPC.\n<\/p>\n
166. Public servant disobeying law, with intent to cause injury to any person
\nWhoever, being a public servant, knowingly disobeys any direction of the law as to the way in which he is to conduct himself as such public servant, intending to cause, or knowing it to be likely that he will, by such disobedience, cause injury to any person, shall be punished with simple imprisonment for a term which may extend to one year, or with fine, or with both<\/p>\n
167. Public servant farming an incorrect document with intent to cause injury
\nWhoever, being a public servant, and being, as “such public servant, charged with the preparation or translation of any document or electronic record, frames, prepares or translates that document or electronic record” in a manner which he knows or believes to be incorrect, intending thereby to cause or knowing it to be likely that he may thereby cause injury to any person, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to three years, or with fine, or with both.\n<\/p>\n
170. Personating a public servant
\nWhoever pretends to hold any particular office as a public servant, knowing that he does not hold such office or falsely personates any other person holding such office, and in such assumed character does or attempts to do any act under colour of such office, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to two years, or with fine, or with both.”\n<\/p>\n
\t9. Even though the complainant was examined herself  as P.W.1,there is no evidence to show that the accused has furnished incorrect document  with an intent to  cause injury to this appellant from the evidence of P.W.2 to P.W.3 . A Junior Assistant working in Revenue Divisional Officer has been examined as P.W.2.  Through her Ex.P.6 – voters list has been marked. But there is no evidence to show that  this appellant is wife of Chamudi except Ex.P.1  and Ex.P.5.  But further the name of Rajammal’s husband also Chamudi which was evidenced by Ex.P.6 voters list and P.W.2’s evidence. So it is appropriate  to    consider the arguments of the learned counsel for the respondent stating   that as per the  voters  list, Serial No.1609 and 1607 is related to Rajammal and she was mentioned as wife of Chamudi.  So there is no document to show that the appellant is the wife of Chamudi who died.    But Rajammal  wife of Chamudi alone has received that amount.\n<\/p>\n
\tMoreover   the appellant has not preferred any petition for applying  family welfare funds  to prove  that the  respondent herein has  given a false certificate facilitating Rajammal to receive Family welfare fund. She has not filed any scrap of paper before this court.  Per contra as per Ex.P.6 and P.W.2’s evidence, it is proved that Rajammal is the wife of Chamudi. The trial court  in paragraph 17 of its judgment has considered the evidence of both sides and came to this conclusion that there is no evidence to show that the appellant herein has  given application before this Tahsildar for obtaining family welfare fund  and in paragraph 18 of its judgment, the trial court has considered the evidence and came to this conclusion that the appellant has not proved the ingredients of Sec.167 of IPC<\/a>. So the trial court  has  considered   all these aspects in a proper perspective and  came to the correct conclusion    that  respondent  is not guilty under Sections 165 A, 166, 167  and 170 IPC<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n
\t11. Therefore I   do not  find  any  irregularity  or infirmity in the judgment passed by the trail court.    So I concur with the findings of the trial court.  Hence the appeal is liable to be dismissed.  \n\n\t  12. In fine, the appeal  is dismissed.\n   The judgment of acquittal  passed by the trial court is hereby confirmed.  The respondent\/accused is acquitted of the charges.\n\t  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nmsr\n\nTo\n\nJudicial Magistrate IV,\nThirupatthur\n\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
