My query on the subject yesterday was what would be expected of the respondant when a preliminary investigation is conducted by a judge in whoose court a false ducument was supposed to have been filed by the respondant in a proceeding. Magistrate comes in picture only when the application is forwared by the judge. The judge is not framing any charges for the offence committed under IPC but only sees whether there is any basis to show the document is false.
The answers I got was only partly.
