Everest and an unsecured loan from Sencose. An agreement was executed in 1991 for investments by the complainant with the accused companies. The complainant alleged deceitful inducement and illegal transfer of hypothecated fixed deposits and company shares by the accused companies, causing financial loss and misappropriation. The petitioners sought quashing of the entire proceedings along with the complaint, alleging misappropriation of valuable securities and illegal transfer of funds by the accused companies and their directors. The criminal revision cases are heard together challenging the complaint dated 31-12-2009, registered as complaint case under Sections 420,467,468 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561814\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">471<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Penal Code, 1860<\/a> (IPC).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Moot Point<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<li>\n<p>Whether the Magistrate erred in not conducting an inquiry under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001519452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">202<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726935\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CrPC<\/a> before issuing process against the accused residing outside the jurisdiction?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Parties&#8217; Arguments<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioners argued that the Magistrate failed to comply with Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001519452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">202<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726935\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CrPC<\/a>, rendering the orders illegal. The complainant-opposite party contended that the Magistrate had adequately inquired into the genuineness of the complaint, justifying the issuance of process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Court&#8217;s Assessment<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court reviewed the orders passed by the Magistrate and stated that explicit compliance with Section 202 is not evident. The Court stated that <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8220;the necessary requirement for the Magistrate to comply with the said provisions under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001519452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">202<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726935\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CrPC<\/a> would be his satisfaction and finding it fit regarding the necessity to cause an enquiry as provided therein and mandatorily in a case, where the accused is residing beyond the area of territorial jurisdiction of the said Magistrate.&#8221;<\/span> Citing precedents, the Court emphasised on the mandatory nature of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001519452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">202<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726935\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CrPC<\/a> in cases where the accused reside beyond the Magistrate&#8217;s jurisdiction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court stated that <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8220;when the legislature provides for a mandate for the Magistrate to postpone the process for the purpose of causing inquiry and with a specific purpose, as written herein above, it is incumbent that the orders of the Magistrate explicitly show that the statutorily provided and mandated process has been undertaken by him. It is also expected that the Magistrate records his finding of the inquiry vis-&agrave;-vis the purpose of the said provision of law&#8221;<\/span> and anything otherwise done by the Magistrate will not be considered as due exercise of the power vested in law and would render <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8220;Magistrate&#8217;s action as dehors the law and not sustainable.&#8221;<\/span> The Court held that the orders of the Magistrate suffered from illegality for not causing an inquiry under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001519452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">202<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726935\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CrPC<\/a> and order directing issuance of summons and subsequent orders are unsustainable in the eye of law.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Court&#8217;s Decision<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court set aside the orders directing the issuance of summons, remanding the case to the Magistrate for due compliance with the law.
