Rajballabh Prasad @ Rajballabh Yadav vs The State Of Bihar on 14 August, 2025

In this regard the law is well settled inasmuch as the Hon'ble Apex Court has held in a judgment rendered in the case of Jarnail Singh (supra) that in case neither the matriculation/equivalent certificates are available nor the date of birth certificate from the school first attended is available nor the birth certificate given by a Corporation or a Municipal Authority or a Panchayat is present, medical opinion is required to be sought for from a duly constituted Medical Board which is required to declare the age of the juvenile or a child. In the present case we find that a Medical Board was constituted, as aforesaid, which had examined the prosecutrix on 17.02.2016 and furnished a medical report, opining therein that on the basis of physical, dental, radiological and pathological examination, the age of the prosecutrix is in between 16 to 17 years. As far as the medical report dated 17.02.2016 is concerned, we find that no Radiologist was a part of the Medical Board, hence neither radiological test was conducted nor expert opinion of the Radiologist was sought for, which is not only important but also conclusive in determining the age of the prosecutrix on the basis of ossification test and reliance was placed merely on a set of x- ray plates pertaining to some purported x-ray of the prosecutrix got done at some other hospital, however there is no proof on Patna High Court CR. APP (DB) No.224 of 2019 dt.14-08-2025 234/315 record to show that the same pertains to the prosecutrix, hence a doubt is created regarding the entire process of age determination of the prosecutrix. We also find that though PW- 10 (Dental Surgeon & Member of the Medical Board), in his evidence, has stated that since the third molar of the prosecutrix had not come out, her age is less than 17 years, however page no. 280 of the Modi's Medical Jurisprudence and Toxicology, 23rd Addition, relied upon by the appellants shows that third molar or wisdom teeth can erupt any time in between 17th to 25th years of age thus the said opinion of PW-10 cannot be relied upon.

55. Hon'ble Apex Court in the judgment of Jarnail Singh Vs State of Haryana (supra) has categorically held that there is hardly any difference in so far as the issue of minority is concerned between a child in conflict with law and a child who is a victim of crime and therefore it would be just and appropriate to apply Rule 12 of 2007 rules to determine the age of the prosecutrix as well.
