It has been submitted by learned counsel for the applicants that the discharge application dated 11.7.2024 was filed by the applicants in which it has been stated that the applicants are innocent and they have not committed any offence. It has been submitted that the proceedings of revenue court under Section 24 of U.P. Revenue Code was initiated between the parties and the order for demarcation was passed on 27.12.2021 by the Sub Divisional Magistrate concerned. He submits that the matter involves civil dispute and due to malafide intention, criminal proceedings have been launched by opposite party no.2. It has been submitted that after going through the record as well as complaint, it is clear that there is no offence made out against the applicants. Learned counsel has also pointed out that there are various contradictions in the statement of witnesses as well as complaint, therefore, the applicants may be discharged. The discharge application filed by the applicants was rejected by the court below on 21.1.2025 against which, a revision filed was also rejected vide order dated 17.9.2025. 4. On the other hand, learned AGA submits that while exercising the jurisdiction under Section 482 Cr.P.C., so far as matter of discharge is concerned, the Court has to be very careful and the Court cannot do mini trial and once complaint has been filed and after recording the statement under Sections 200 and 202 Cr.P.C if an offence is made out, the Court cannot do mini trial. Certainly, the case can be tested and tried by the trial Court and discharge application cannot be allowed. 5. At this stage, learned counsel for the applicants has submitted that the statement under Section 244 Cr.P.C. has been recorded, therefore, the trial is not required and on the face of record, the Court can look into the matter. In support of his submission, he has placed reliance upon the judgment of the Supreme Court in Anukul Singh vs. State of U.P. and another, 2025 INSC 1153. A482 No. 9138 of 2025 2 6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I find that the statement under Sections 200 and 202 Cr.P.C. has been recorded and the complaint and the statement indicate that the offence is made out. The contradiction if any, between the statement of complainant as well as witnesses cannot be looked into by this Court. The evidence has to be seen by the court below and after going through the record and leading evidence, the trial court can pass the order. I find that the order passed by the court below rejecting the discharge application is justified. 7. This application stands disposed of.
