(a) It is fu.rthe, alleged that on 3L.OT.2O2O at about 1. .rJO hours, S.Rami Redd g- !)re srdent of HCVOA restrained HCpL stalf in to the club house and cluserl nuisance with a view to usurp the clutr land and later S.Rami RedrJ y. Anumolui Srinivasa Rao, Rajender Redd,/ and other residents objr:o.erl the staff of HCPL and abused then in filthy language and threated rvi tLL d irect consequences f' i,.; 4 (b) It is also alleged that on 01'10'2020 at about 05'00 P'M' some of the residents of Hill county viz. Sai Reddy, Ratna Gopai, Dr'Sunil and Mallikharjun criminally trespassed into the club house' broken the locks and threatened the security personnel with dire consequences' abused them in frlthy ianguage and caused damage of club property' (c) It is also alleged that on 02 'lO '2O2O at about 16'0O hours' at Club House, Hill County, Bachupally Village and Mandal' Medchal District, the EC members and residents of Hill County Villa Owners Association (HCVOA) and Hill County Apartment Owners Association (HCAOA) numbering to about 1OO persons criminally trespassed into the Club House, created nuisance' hungama and forcefully evicted the staff ald security of M/s'Hill County Properties Ltd'' (HCPL)' Hyderabad and occupied the club house' Further' the said mob prevented the staff of HCPL from entering into the premises and gain entry to the assets' machinery and equipment lying inside the club house'

5. Basing on the above allegations' the investigating officer conducted investigation and upon examining the material witnesses and relevant documents, has laid charge-sheets against the accused alleging that they are liable to be prosecuted for the offences' as tabulated supra, for their acts' The trial Court has taken cognizance of the sai{ offences and assigned calendar case numbers and after completing the required procedural aspects' proceeded with further' ' ) \ \ 5

6. During the :,rurse of proceedings before the trial Cour , the above referred crirrinal nriscellaneous petitions were filec by the, respective petitioners/ a:c rs;r:c seeking their discharge mainly crrntenCing that they did not itornut any offence much less the alleged olfen;r and that they were fal;e1y irplicated in the present criminal <:ase,; rvir-t.out there being any ingredie nts to attract the offences with which ihr:y l12rr" 6.., attributed anC he:rc:e, continuation of the criminal proce eclir r6,s against them would caL sr: ir.reparable loss and injury.

7. The said c nminal miscellaneous petitions u.e:.e ,,ehemently opposed by iearrrcd Assistant public prosecutor repres,:rLting the Respondent/ lite_te ntainly contending that the said aoplic:a1.i(,ns are not maintainable ir litr,,, and that the matters requi.erl fu11_flr:dged trial since the inve sti grLtion revealed prima-facie materia a1:;ainst the accused.

8. The trial o.* ri dismissed the said applications hotcting t rat there is prima-facie casio to proceed with trial against the at:cus,e,l as the material facts rv.ull come on record only after full-fleriged trirl and that there are no rrerirs in the petitions to discharge the accus,.d,

9. Aggrieved b.y the orders of the trial Court, referr,:d r;.bove, the petitioners in ell th e se criminal revision cases have knoc ked tJre doors of this court :rririn S contending that the orders of trre tiia.l court are I I 6 contrary to the principles of settled law and facts; the trial Court failed to consider the fact that though the complaint discloses that HCVOA and HCAOA, EC members and residents about 1OO persons trespassed into the club house and created mrisance and forcefully evicted the staff and security of HCPL and occupied the club house' the petitioners/ accused. are only arrayed as accused without menLioning the names of the remaining persons and even the charge-sheet aiso silent in this regard; the complaint copy or the FIR are silent regarding the representative of the complainant company; the trial Court without giving cogent and convincing reason has erroneously held that the grounds urged by the accused seeking their discharge are not on sound lines; the accused are innocent persons and they have not committed any acts attracting the offences alleged against them; civil dispute regarding ownership of club house is pending adjudication before the civil Court but the said issue has been given a criminal cloak; though the recitals of complaint show that the matter is subjudice before the NCLT, Mumbai, no piece of paper is hied along with complaint; there is a delay in lodging the complaints; when the facilities are locked by the HPCL and they kept the keys with them, there will not be any possibility either for the petitioner or any others to occupy the same or to damage the facilities; there is nothing in the charge-sheet regarding recovery of damaged property by the investigating officer; omnibus and false allegations are made against the petitioners; there is no prima-facie It"- ' 'i-,;x;*ffil'- - ': :]j 7 material agirirsr r he petitioners/accused to proceed wittL riar and the investigation ,r,,e tt. on biassed manner having been rnsdgr,ated by the complainan - lc,rn oany and hence, the petitioners a re irrble to be discharged lion-r JLe impugned criminal proceedings.

10. In suJrp.rt of their case, learned counsel for t he peril ic,ners in all these matte rs r:lied upon the decisions render,:d jn lla,rak Dash Mukharjee :rnd others Vs.State of Uttar pradesh and othersr, Ram Prakash Chadha ti/s.The State of Uttar pradesh2, Ram Rattan and others Vs.State of U.p.a and orders of Karnataka High Court in CrI.P.No.9698 -of 2OIg contended that whiie decicling the e pplication hled seeking discharge of the accused, the court is bcu.n,1 to record reasons and the r-'r;urt should be based on record a.cl .val :.ntentions advanced on ei.,her side. He further contended that ihe itci-:sed cannot be entangled ir rr r:.ltiple criminal proceedings for the sa me s,lt of facts and aliegatio;rs ar Lr.. the same cannot stand for 1egal scrut_ir y and it is nothing but vio a[iv ] of right of the accused under A.trcle s 2 . tnd 22 of the Constitulon o India. 1 i . On the ot hel hand, learned Assistant public pr,rsecutor lor the l st respondent/ S ta ter rrnd also the learned counsel for the 2,rd rr s:ondent/ complainant, r,,zh.r filed counters on behalf of 2,,t r, :spondent, ' 2022 LiveLaw (SC) ,11 '2024 AIR Supreme :o rrt35rO r 1977 AtR Supreme :orrrt 61! ,/ ) 1 { i I I 8 vehemently opposed tJre present criminal revision cases mainly contending that the orders of the trial Court are based on material available on record, decisions relied upon by the parties and upon hearing both sides and with sound reasoning' hence' the said well- reasoned orders cannot be interfered with. They further contended that during investigation sufhcient material has been collected by the investigating ofhcer to establish the complicity of the accused and hence, without subjecting the said material to the trial and letting the accused to face the trial, the accused cannot be declared as innocent at this premature stage

12. The learned counsel for the 2'd respondent' while contending above, relied upon the decisions rendered in Mitesh Kumar J'Sha State of Tamilnadu Vs' Vs.The State of Karnataka and othersa' of U.P.6 and State of R.Soundirarasus, Hazrat Deen Vs' State Rajasthan Vs. Ashok Kumar KashyapT and contended that while deciding a discharge petition the Court can sift and weigh the evidence' but it shouldn't conduct a detailed examination or weigh the evidence as if it were conducting a full tria-l and that if there are tvr'o possible interpretations and one raises suspicion' but not grave suspicion' the Court can discharge the accused' It is further contended that it is o cr1.e.ruo.1285 of 2021 arising out of sLP (crl ) No 9871 of 2019 of Hon'b 5 2022tCC OnLine SC 1150 6 2022 GCC OnLine SC 178 '(zoz tt srpr"r" court cases 191 le Supreme court \ \ 9 settled prinril)lo .f law that at the stage of considering ,ar L application for discharlJe tL e Court must proceed on an assurnpti,rrl that the material which tas been brought on record by the prc,secrrlion is true and evaluat,: t h e r;aid material in order to determi.e whertl Le r the facts emerging fronr .LLe material taken on its face valu e, , lisclose the existence of the in;lredients necessary of the offence alleged.

13. The learnel counsel for the 2.d respondent furthel contended that althougr r.her. is perhaps not even ar iota of d.ubt the t a singurar factual premisr: r:zrn give rise to a dispute which is b.th, cf a civil as well as criminal natule means, that a single factual pre,mise ,:e n lead to a dispute that is b,rth civil and criminal in nature. In sr-Lch :irses, both civil and critni nzrl proceedings can be pursued independr:rt.y of each other. Crim n:rl proceedings are not a shortcut lo otl161 remedies available in 1:r', l,earned counsel for the 2.d resp.n,Cr nt further contended that t.he present criminal revision petitions are f le d beyond the limitation peri t<l and hence, they are not maintarnable ir L lhe eye of law. The sco,e of r:r,ision is very limited, tl,re petitioaers crar..r ot expect the High Court to <.onduct a mini_trial before the trial tc tre conducted by the trial ()orrrt The petitioners can prove their inn oce r<:e during trial by chall:ngirg the prosecution case. Since the r)etiricners are identifiabie or_rt c,1 [he mob barged into the club house, they were arrayed as acourlec rrnd it is the duty of the petitioner.s to nar n l out the I '.:.- .. 10 other co-conspirators' Complaint copy reveal the 2'd respondent as the authorized signatory for the complainant company' It is further contended that since the orders of the tria-l Court are made on sound reasoning and giving due consideration to the materia-i placed before' the present criminal revision cases are liable to be dismissed'

14. This Court perused the material available on record including the impugned orders of the trial Court and heard the rival contentions advanced on ether side. The record goes to show that the 2'd respondent along with others established Hili County Properties Limited (HCPL), which is a real estate company and it being the developer of the property, constructed club house and the petitioners/accused purchased flats and villas in the said project and subsequently formed into association along with other residents in the name of HCAOA and the said association claimed right to use the club house and when they were restricted, as per the allegations, they have criminally trespassed into the club house and damaged the facilities'

15.Therecordfurthergoestoshowthatthereisadisputern existence regarding ttre usage of club house by the residents 'of the villas and flats and their claiming right over the club house' The statement of witnesses show that the project is a HUDA approved layout and all the villa and flat owners have right to enjoy tJle amenities therein like common areas, club, parking artd commerciai comPlexe,s,, l I 11 managed by the.F'CpL but they cannot claim right over th,: same. The version of th(. p e litioner/accused is that they w:re restr-eiined from entering into t he c lub house by the staff of HCpL and the vt rrsion of the HCPL is thaI the ;,etitioners along with others trespass,:d irtto the club house by br:king the locks and caused damage to the faciliries in the club house. 76' conterrti'i)rrsi and rivar contentions are advanced on b,rth sides to support their rr:spe ctive cases. Section 239 of Cr.p.C... errun.iirte that if, upon consid:r ng lhe police report and the docurnen,s s,rnt with it under section 7i, cf Cr.p.C., and maling such exaztintrtior r, if any, of the accused asr lllo Magistrate thinks necessary and e fter 1;iving the prosecution ard the accused an opportunity of beitg r,:ard, the Magistrate ccnsrick:rs the charge against the accusecl to be 5.,r:undless, he sha1l dischargr' the accused, and record his reasonr; rb: so doing. But in the c::se,; on hand, the prosebution upon ccnrpletion of investigating lad c earge-sheets alleging that the petiti,)ner s/accused along with a [ir( uF r>f people have committed criminal trespa.is, created nuisance, hu rgar a and forcefully evicted the stalf arrd :,e:uritJr of M/s.Hill CourrtJ Ir -operties Ltd., (HCPL), Hyderabad and ocr:tpied Lhe ciub house. Iurtlter, the said mob prevented the staff of Fj()pL from entering into the pr.emises and gain entry to the assets, nraclrinery and equipment lyirLg insi<le the club house. However the said zLileg er.ions are I I I I I I I T2 the subject matters of trial arld without subjecting the same to the test of trial, it cannot be decided in either way' There is nothing on record to reject the charge-sheets at the threshold naming them as groundless'

17. The grounds urged through these criminal revision cases have no force warranting interference of this Court' Pending civil proceedings cannotshieldtheaccusedfromfacingthecriminaltrial.Civiland criminal proceedings can run parallel and are not dependent upon each other. There is no bar in registering different FIRs against the accused for their distinct acts. The contentions advanced on either side are the triable issues and they cannot be decided prematurely' Proposition of law is very clear that review of a judgment is a serious step and reluctant resort to it is proper only where a glaring omission or patent mistakeorlikegraveerrorhascreptineariierbyjudicialfallibility.

18. The scope of interference and exercise of jurisdiction under Section 397 Cr.P.C', is extremely limited and it should be exercised very sparingly and only where the decision under challenge is grossly erroneous, or there is non-compliance of the provisions of law' or the frnding recorded by the trial Court is based on no evidence' or material evidence is ignored or judicial discretion is exercised arbitrarily or perversely by framing the charge' When the impugned orders are perused, there is nothing on record to set aside tnt "tT:--"1rrce t \ \ \ 13 Court see'; n,l apparent error warranting intr:rferen.cr) under the revisional tr)o\.irer s 19- In vir:u' of t.ee above discussed factual matrix, this c,: rrt is of the considered otr,irrion that the present criminal revisi()n caser irre liabre to be dismissc d. 20 In tht: r'es;rrlt.
