offence u/s 398 ipc with only four accused will not lie ?

sir,
in one of my case, the allegation is that 4 accused persons showed a knife to the defacto-complainant and snatched a gold chain from him and subsequently after so many days, gave it to the 5 th accused to sell the gold ornament.here the offences charged against the accused are u/s 392, 398, r/w 34 of IPC against accused No. 1 to 4 and an offence u/s 414 of IPC seperately.
now , in this case, charge has been framed and denied by the accused,summons has been issued to the witnesses.
now, my doubt is that, here the only sessions offence is 398 IPC. it requires 5 or more persons to commit the offence. but, here, in this case, even though now there are 5 accused persons, at the time of commission of offence there were only 4 accused persons. or in otherwords, accused No.5 has not ever took part in the dacoity at all, the only allegation against her is that she has assisted in concealment of stolen property (u/s 414 IPC).
so, according to me 398 will not lie as there were only 4 accused persons at the time of dacoity.
if at all, 392 may lie.so, 392 IPC and the other offence charged against accused No. 5 , 414 IPC, is also an offence triable by magistrate only.but, now, as sec. 398 has been incorporated now it is in sessions court.now, charge has been framed and denied by the accused. so, i cannot argue for discharge also.
what is the remedy ?

maximum amount of fine imposable by a magistrate

sir,
in one of my case, accused was found guilty and sentenced to undergo si for 3 years and to pay a fine of Rs. 10,000/- for an offence of 457 of IPC and an si of 2 years and a fine of 5000/- for an offence of 380 IPC.
Is the judgement of the judicial first class magistrate legally valid , as per sec. 29(2) crpc?
as per sec 29(2) crpc, the maximum amount of fine that can be imposed by a magistrate is Rs. 5000/-.
he can impose any amount as comphensation u/s 357(1)(d) in the above offences, but, it should be " comphensation ".
here it is, fine only.
please explain ?
now, i have filed an appeal, appeal has been admitted ,sentence has been suspended till the disposal of the appeal, by the district court.
what is the effect of such illegal judgement of lower court, on an appeal ?

Character Assassination, Harassment and Defamation

I am Secretary of a Co-operative Housing Society in Mumbai. It is an excellent Society but some members, a few of them defaulter, are making my life miserable. Every now and then They make me their personal target and keep on writing nasty letters. They have recorded me Cheat, liar, han-in-glove with the builder, not trust worthy and have even attempted for verbal and physical assault. They keep on causing tremendous harassment to me and cause a nuisance not only on personal level BUT also it effects running of the Society. This otherwise is an honourary work. All our accounts are uptodate and get periodically audited by an internal auditor who is appointed by the General Body of the Society. Several times I have advised these Nuisance makers to join the Committe and execute the M-20 Bond. BUT they would not come forward to join BUT want me to run the society in their way and want me take action the way they want and record resolutions the way they want. It is not possible for me to leave the committe just because of these 7 persons (out of 89 of the Society). Now their acts are getting intolerable. I intend to initiate legal action against such members. Please suggest a way out. Regards. Sudhir Ashta
