learned counsel for the State and learned counsel for the Opposite Party No.2-Informant.
2. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the Petitioner that ex-facie there is perversity in exercise of jurisdiction since even if the materials on record are accepted at its face value, no offence inter alia under Section 376 of IPC is made out.

4. This Court perused the 164 Cr.P.C. statement of the victim and the statement of other witnesses including the statement of daughter of the Informant. p. 2

order taking cognizance of the offences including under the I.T. Act.
6. It is needless to state here that it shall be open to the Petitioner to raise all grounds as available in law at the time of consideration of charge which shall be considered on its own merit without being prejudiced by the order passed by this Court which is at the stage of cognizance.
7. Accordingly, the CRLREV stands disposed of. In view of disposal CRLREV, pending I.As., if any, stand disposed of.
