Criminal Appeal No. 2340 of 2023\" href=\"#fn1\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/a> and said that to make out a case under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561860\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">506<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IPC<\/a> the ingredients of criminal intimidation as mentioned in Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561857\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">503<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IPC<\/a> has to be complied with, i.e., the threat caused by applicant must be with intent to cause alarm to that person, or to cause that person to do any act which he was not legally bound to do, or to omit to do any act which that person was legally entitled to do.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">However, the Court said that part of the allegation that applicants have committed offence of lurking premises by night and house trespass was not found to be proved. Therefore, the only allegation left was to raise abusive language and cause threat. But the statements are much short of ingredients that applicants intended to alarm the Complainant side. The nature of abusive language was not specific. Applicant-1 was naturally at the house, and there was no evidence of intent. Therefore, ingredients of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561857\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">503<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IPC<\/a> as punishable under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561860\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">506<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IPC<\/a> are not made out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Concerning allegation under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561858\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">504<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IPC<\/a>, after referring to <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Mohammad Wajid<\/span> (supra), the Court reiterated that mere abuse, discourtesy, rudeness or insolence, may not amount to an intentional insult within the meaning of Section 504 IPC if it does not have the necessary element of being likely to incite the person insulted to commit a breach of the peace. The Court said that as the nature of abusive language was not on record, there was no statement to the effect that alleged abusive language used by applicants was sufficient to insult the Complainant side to commit a breach of peace. Thus, even ingredients of Section 504 IPC are missing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Therefore, the Court said that since ingredients of Sections <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561858\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">504<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001561860\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">506<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IPC<\/a> are absolutely missing as well as not only FIR was lodged after about 11 months, without any explanation but on basis of above referred facts, present proceedings are counterblast and were initiated with motive for wreaking vengeance, therefore, in the light of <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">A.M.
