never....

it will be highly strange thing to happen if done.

No judge at any level can convict a person for an act which is not an offence under any law.

According to me a magistrate does not have power to convict a person who has not committed any offence under law of land.

How can a magistrate charge and convict a person? .. say me some illustrations?

It is very impossible. Magistrate has to act with in the boundaries of laws.

If did so no meaning in judicial process
