M/S. Skipper Beverages Pvt. Ltd. vs State on 24 April, 2001
I
do not find any infirmity or illegality in the order of Ld. Trial Court dt.
18.01.2010, which has been rightly passed relying upon the
judgments of the Hon'ble Delhi High Court in M/s Skipper Beverages
Pvt. Ltd. Vs. State 2001 IV AD (Delhi) and V.P. Sharma (Dr.) Vs.
State (N.C.T of Delhi) & Ors, 2009XAD(Delhi)701. In the present
case also, the revisionist has only filed an application U/s 156(3) Cr.
PC alleging that the principal of a school, where he was working had
used certain words degrading his reputation, which fell foul of the
provisions of scheduled caste and scheduled tribes (Prevention of
Atrocities) Act 1989, and in the present case also the
10
petitioner/revisionist has chosen not to file a complaint U/s 200 Cr.
PC and he wants to adopt a shortcut. Consequently, the Ld. Trial
Court was justified in dismissing his application U/s 156(3) Cr. PC
and putting up the matter for pre-summoning evidence. Even,
otherwise all the prospective evidence which the petitioner/revisionist
wanted to lead in this case, was well within his knowledge and reach
and no field investigation was required on the part of the police to
collect any evidence in this case on the complaint, filed by him before
the Ld. Trial Court.
