Challenging the maintainability of this writ petition, the learned counsel for the State submits that since charge-sheet has been submitted upon completion of investigation and cognizance thereof taken by a judicial order passed by the learned Magistrate, the writ petition is not maintainable. It is a fact that cognizance of charge-sheet has been taken by the learned Magistrate by a judicial order. In view of observation of a co-ordinate Bench of this Court in the authority in Indrani Chakraborty Vs. State of West Bengal and Others reported in 2014 SCC
2 Online CAL 17573 and the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the authority in Pradnya Pranjal Kulkarni Vs. State of Maharashtra & Another reported in 2025 LiveLaw (SC) 875, the writ petition is not maintainable and is accordingly dismissed. However, the petitioner is liberty to approach the appropriate forum of redressal of her grievance. Urgent certified website copy of the order, if applied for, be given to the parties on compliance of requisite formalities.
