Whether period of remand be set off

Dear All,

An absconding accused wanted by 2 agencies against whom NBW's were pending was arrested by one agency and remanded to judicial custody. The second agency files an application for issuance of PT warrant for production of the accused in their case and the PT warrant is issued by the magistrate after directing the agency to return the un executed NBW.

When accused is produced on PT warrant for the hearing, the magistrate remands him to judicial custody in that case and the remand is periodically extended. Later magistrate grants bail to the accused in the 2nd bail application which was heavily contested by the prosecution.

The prosecution moves the High Court for cancellation of bail and obtains stay of the bail order. Subsequently the accused gets bail in the other case and moves the high court for dismissal of the petition filed by prosecution. In the course of arguments the prosecution takes a stand for the first time that since they have never arrested the accused at any point of time, grant of bail to the accused by the magistrate is wrong. The High Court holds that since accused was not arrested in this case no bail is necessary and he is released.

The magistrate has been periodically remanding the accused to custody. The bail applications were contested by the prosecution on merits upto the HC and the argument of not arresting was taken for the 1st time during the arguments. The question is whether the accused is entitled to seek set off the period of remand by the magistrate in the final sentence.

Please give me a considered opinion.

Thanks,

N.Ramakrishnan, ADV

Discharge in case of two police complaints

Ld counsels,

Chargesheet has been filed alleging offenses u/s 420 and 417. Cognizance taken and summons issued. Accused filed discharge. In this case there is already a complaint alleging dowry demand but no FIR was registered based on this.

1. Process is issued based on second complaint. Is the court right in taking cognizance of the chargesheet arising out of second complaint without considering the final report of the first complaint. Though it is mentioned in teh second complaint that there is a previous complaint prior to this one. magistrate issued process with out reading the FIR.

2. Will discharge be dismissed citing that there are allegations of dowry demand and there is a possibility of framing charges though prima facie offenses u/s 420,417 is not established.

3. Will discharge be possible when the complainant is found to be lying on the face of the record which amounts to fraud on court.

Please clarify

Thanks

restoration of civil case

She stated in her cross examination

It is wrong to suggest that the
complaint made by me against

accused is false or by way of cheating
has been made. It is wrong to suggest
that contents of the complaint
are all false.
It is wrong to
suggest that I had admitted that
my complaint was false or I
wrote letter to Shri V. S. Chauhan
to Sr. PA DAG Administration
confessing the same on 20/4/05
or that I sent said letter after
signing to V.S. Chauhan. I do
not admit signature on Mark
A at point A.

It is wrong to
suggest that I had written any letter to Senior DAG (Admn) addressing to him and that very letter bears the signatures of two witnesses nor I had written second letter to Sh. V.S. Chauhan, P.A. to Senior DAG (Admn) nor I had showed any apology against the provision that I had furnished in the FIR being the same falsely leveled against the accused nor I have never disclosed the facts of these two letters to my husband being the same letter not written by me to any officer.

It is wrong to suggest that I had made complaints on two occasions on

20.4.2005 against my husband in writing to my officers. It is correct that I had made these two aforesaid complaints against my husband to the Chowki In charge R.K. Puram, Sector-4, New Delhi affiliated to PS R.K. Puram, New Delhi. It is correct that I had made these complaints in the month of April 2004. Again said, Sorry, in the year 2005


This letter she wrote to her office on 20.4.2005

Asha Arya wife of Sh. Satish Chandra, resident of 147-Neb Sarai, New Delhi working as Sr. Auditor in the office of the Accountant General (Audit), Delhi, AGCR Bldg., New Delhi-110002, without any influence and pressure from any body disclose that the contents of FIR No. 37/2004 registered on 18.2.2004 at Mandir Marg Police Station, New Delhi are false and fabricated and the above FIR was lodged by me under extreme pressure and threat to me by my husband. I had no intention to label mean and false allegations on anybody but the pressure and threat of my husband led to all this. As regards misbehaviour with Sh. V.S. Chauhan, P.A. by my husband in the office complex during lunch time on 9.3.2004, I am to state that my husband pressurised me to impose on Sh. V.S. Chauhan false allegations of illegal affairs with me. I did all these things the way my husband wanted me to do. I again reiterate that there is no truth in any of the allegation and these are all fabricated.
