The instant petition is preferred seeking a direction to respondent Police to include the offences which are mentioned in the FIR, but omitted in the charge sheet. 2. It is the contention of the learned counsel for petitioner, that the primary offences such as Section 143, 147, 149 and 307 of IPC which were in the FIR are dropped while filing the charge sheet and therefore, the complaint filed by the petitioner has been diluted. - 4 - NC: 2025:KHC:15836 WP No. 12823 of 2023 3. As per the charge sheet material it can be seen that based on the investigation and the statements of the witnesses, charge sheet was filed for the offences Punishable under Section 341, 354, 324, 323 read with Section 34 of IPC. 4. It is submitted by the learned High Court Government Pleader that there is a case and counter case registered against each other and charges are framed in both the cases and matter is set down for trial. 5. It is needless to say that during course of trial, if any evidence appears which warrants the trial Court to frame additional charges, the law permits to do so, however, in accordance with the procedure prescribed. Petition is disposed of with the above observation. Sd/- (MOHAMMAD NAWAZ) JUDGE LDC List No.: 1 Sl No.: 28
