GURULINGA JANGALIGI V. STATE OF KARNATAKA1 while
considering the very words that are used by the learned
Magistrate to permit investigation for a non-cognizable offence
has held as follows:

14. This Court in the case of Padubidri Members
Lounge v. Director General and Inspector General of
Police [W.P. Nos. 42073-75/2018 DD : 3/10/2012] ,
considered the mandatory provision of Section 155(1) and
(2) of CrP.C., where the charge sheet was filed for the
offence under Section 87 of the K.P. Act. In paragraphs 6
and 7, this Court has held as follows:--
Veeranagouda S/O Nanasaheb Patil vs The State Of Karnataka By Bijapur Rural ... on 2 June, 2009
18. Under these circumstances, this Court felt
it necessary to lay down some guidelines for the
benefit of our Judicial Magistrates as to how they
have to approach and pass orders when requisition
is submitted by the SHO of Police Station seeking
permission to investigate into the non-cognizable
offence. The provision of Section 155(1) and (2) of Cr.
P.C., referred above make it very much clear that the
SHO of the Police Station on receiving the
information regarding the commission of non-
cognizable offence, his first duty is to enter or cause
to be entered the substance of such commission in a
book maintained by such Officer and then refer the
informant to the Magistrate. This is the requirement
of Section 155(1) of Cr. P.C. Once the requisition is
submitted to the Magistrate, it is for the
Jurisdictional Magistrate to consider the requisition
submitted by the SHO of Police Station and pass
necessary order either permitting the Police Officer
to take up the investigation or reject the requisition.
Section 155(2) of Cr. P.C., specifically provides that
no Police Officer shall investigate the non-cognizable
case without the order of the Magistrate having
power to try such case or commit such case for trial.
Therefore, passing an "order" by the Magistrate
permitting the Police Officer to investigate the non-
cognizable offence is an important factor. The word
without the order of the Magistrate appearing in sub-
Section (2) of Section 155 of Cr. P.C., makes it clear
that the Magistrate has to pass an 'order' which
means supported by reasons. On the other hand, in
number of cases, the Jurisdictional Magistrates are
writing a word 'permitted' on the requisition
submitted by the Police itself which does not satisfy
the requirement of Section 155(2) of Cr. P.C., Such an
13
endorsement cannot be equated with the word
'Order'.
