4. On the matter being taken up, the Court raised a pointed query as to whether charges have been framed against applicant or not. 5.

The learned A.G.A. submits that in view of above, the prayer made in this application is wholly misconceived as an offence under Section 376 IPC is triable by Court of Sessions.

Pramod Shahi), under Sections 376, 506 IPC, which is pending in the Court of Additional Sessions Judge/F.T.C.-I, Gorakhpur. 7.
