The present application has been filed by the applicants under Section 482 Cr.P.C. with the prayer to stay operation of the order dated 3.6.2017 passed in Revision No. 322 of 2016 (Moonga Lal and another Vs. State of U.P. and another) by the Additional District & Sessions Judge, Court No. 11, Bareilly as well as the order dated 2.7.2016 passed in complaint case no. 1212 of 2016 (Pooran Dei Vs. Moonga Lal and another), under Section 376-D and 506 IPC, Police Station Mahila Thana, Sadar, district Bareilly by Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bareilly. 2.

It is submitted by the learned counsel for the applicants that initially F.I.R. was lodged on 19.10.2014 on the basis of the order passed on the application filed under Section 156 (3) Cr.PC. Offence took place on 19.8.2014. Medical examination was done on 20.10.2014. Nothing was found in the medical report to show that the offence under Section 376-D IPC was committed. Investigating officer during investigation submitted final report. On protest petition being filed by the victim, concerned Magistrate treating the protest petition as complaint recorded the evidence under Chapter XV Cr.P.C. Victim's statement was also not supported by any independent witness. Offence under Section 376-D IPC is not made out. Concerned Magistrate has also committed illegality. Victim is major one. 4. Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer. 5. I have considered the rival submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the entire record. 6. Offence is said to have been committed on 19.8.2014 but the medical of the victim was done on 20.10.2014. Thus keeping in view the statement of the victim recorded under Section 200 and202 Cr.P.C. and the entire evidence available on record at this stage it cannot be said that no prima facie case is made out.
