For Petitioner(s): L Infant Dinesh For Respondent(s): Dr.C.E.Pratap https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL RC No. 2743 of 2025 Government Advocate (Crl.Side) ORDER The revision challenges the dismissal of the discharge petition filed by the petitioner, who has been charged for offence under Sections 419, 420 of IPC and Section 66D of Information Technology (Amendment) Act, 2008. 2. The petitioners moved the petition for discharge and the same was dismissed by the impugned order since the petitioners did not appear when the case was called and a Non-Bailable Warrant was pending against the petitioners. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners have subsequently recalled the NBW and the charges have not been framed so far and their petition may be heard on merits. 4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) confirms the fact that the charges have not been framed so far. 5. Considering the above facts, though the order of the learned Judge cannot be faulted as the petitioners did not appear during the hearing, this Court is inclined to grant one more opportunity to the petitioners to place their facts. Hence, the learned Magistrate may hear the petition on merits and dispose of it within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL RC No. 2743 of 2025 6.
