That brief facts of the case, which appear from the application under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C. preferred by the applicant, are summarized as under :- (i) The property/land indicated in complaint, i.e. land of Gata No.290, 296, 289, according to the applicant, is ancestral property of the applicant and other family members of the applicant, who were in possession of the same on the date of alleged incident. (ii) Demarcation case, in terms of Section 24 of U.P. Revenue Code, 2006 (in short "Code, 2006"), was/is pending in the Revenue Court of S.D.M. concerned. (iii) On 26.06.2023, at about 11-12 Noon, Savita Yadav, S.D.M., Musafir Khan; Sangita Pandey, Tahsildar; Circle Officer, Musafir Khana; Meera Mishra, Lekhpal, Tehsil- Musafir Khana; Tarun Patel, Incharge Inspector Police Station - Bazar Shukul; Incharge, Mahila Thana; 15 Mahila Constables of Police Station-Mahila Thana, 20 unknown constables of Police Station-Bazar Shukul and 10 unknown officers/officials of PWD and also officials of Tahsil Musafir Khana namely Ram Sardar Upadhyay, Rameshwari, W/o Ram Sardar, Satya Prakash, S/o Ram Sardar and others came to the house of the applicants, situated over the property/land in issue, indicated above, and by using J.C.B. machine they damaged 12 thatch (Chappar), Pucca Wall, 15 cement pillars, cot, utensil, Takht and other articles also. On being opposed, the applicant and family 4 members of the applicant were assaulted and abused and castiest remarks were also made. In the incident about 35 persons were injured. 11 injured persons were apprehended in exercise of power under Section 151 Cr.P.C.

5. From the record, particularly, Annexure No.2, this Court finds that to establish its case, the applicant before the Special Judge, submitted injury reports of various persons. From the injury reports on record, it is apparent that the concerned injured persons were examined on 17.03.2023, 11.07.2023 and 12.07.2023. On 17.03.2023 Injured Kusum was medically examined and on 08.07.2023 Anara, Rohit Kumar, Amar Nath and Dinesh were medically examined. On

11.07.2023 Geeta Devi, Mini, Phool Varsha and Raj Kumar were medically examined. On 12.07.2023 Ganga Prasad was medically examined.

6. The dates of medical examination of injured persons, indicated above, according to the injury reports, annexed as Annexure 2 to the present application and the date of incident, i.e. 26.06.2023 mentioned in the complaint, to the view of this Court, creates doubt on the story, as narrated in the complaint.

7. It is to be noted that according to the order in issue, the government officials were present at the spot for the purposes of removing the encroachment in compliance of the order of this Court. The relevant portion of the order is extracted herein above :- "vkosnd us foi{khx.k ij vk{ksi yxk;k gS fd muds }kjk vkosnd ds edku dks fxjkrs gq, tkfr lwpd 'kCnksa viekfur fd;k rFkk ekj ihV dh x;hA i=koyh ij Fkkus dh tkap vk[;k layXu gS] ftlds voyksdu ls Li"V gS fd y[kuhiqj fLFkr xkVk la[;k 301 dks vfrdze.k eqDr djkus ds lEcU/k esa ekuuh; mPp U;k;ky; y[kuÅ] [k.MihB y[kuÅ }kjk eq[; vfHk;Urk ih0MCyw0Mh0 o miftykf/kdkjh dks vknsf'kr fd;k x;k Fkk] ekuuh; mPp U;k;ky; ds vkns'k ds vuqikyu ds vuqdze esa eq[; vfHk;Urk ih0MCyw0Mh0 o ,l0Mh0,e0 eqlkfQj[kkuk o iqfyl Vhe dh la;qDr dk;Zokgh esa mDr xkVk la[;k 301 dks vfrdze eqDr fd;k x;kA tcfd foi{khx.k yksd lsod gS vkSj mUgksaus ekuuh; mPp U;k;ky; ds vkns'kkuqlkj vius inh; dRrZO;ksa dk fuoZgu djrs gq, mDr tehu dks vfrdze.k eqDr fd;k gSA izFken`"V;k ;g izrhr gksrk gS fd vkosnd ek= eux<Ur rF;ksa ds vk/kkj ij ;g izkFkZuk i= izLrqr fd;k x;k gSA fof/k O;oLFkk x;k'kqn~nhu cuke LVsV vkQ ;w0ih0 ,0lh0lh0 2013 ¼80½ ist 101] fnihy dqekj feJk cuke LVsV vkQ ;w0ih0 ,0lh0lh0 2013 ¼80½ ist 870 ds izLrj 20 ,oa fof/k O;oLFkk 5 dju flag cuke LVsV vkQ ,e0ih0 192 lh0vkj0,y0ts0 ist 3054 esa izfrikfnr fl)kUrksa dk Hkh voyksdu fd;k x;kA fof/k O;oLFkk x;klqn~nhu cuke LVsV vkQ ;w0ih0 mijksDr esa ;g vo/kkfjr fd;k x;k gS fd ;fn U;k;ky; dh jk; esa izkFkZuki= nqjk'k; ls ,oa dkuwu ds nq:i;ksx djus ds vk'k; ls izLrqr fd;k x;k gS] rc ;|fi fd izkFkZuki= esa fd;s x;s dFkuksa ls laKs; vijk/k dk xBu gksrk gks] rc Hkh U;k;ky; izkFkZuki= fujLr dj ldrh gSA blh fl)kUr dks mijksDr of.kZr fof/k O;oLFkkvksa esa Hkh izfrikfnr fd;k x;k gSA ekuuh; mPpre U;k;ky; }kjk fof/k O;oLFkk fcjyk dkjiksjs'ku fyfeVsM cuke ,MosUV~t bUosLVesaV 2019 ¼2½ lh0lh0,l0lh0 ist 1640 esa Hkh ;gh fl)kUr iqu% izfrikfnr fd;k x;k gS vkSj vo/kkfjr fd;k x;k gS fd nkf.Md dk;Zokgh dks mRihM+u dk ek/;e ugha cuk;k tk ldrkA fiz;adk JhokLro cuke LVsV vkQ ;w0ih0 ,l0lh0lh0 ¼2015½ 287 ds ekeys esa ekuuh; loksZPp U;k;ky; }kjk dgk x;k gS fd izkFkZuk i= 156 ¼3½ n0iz0la0 ds rgr 'kiFki= izLrqr fd;k tkuk vfuok;Z gS vkSj U;k;ky; dks mldh lR;rk lqfuf'pr fd;s tkus gsrq iqfyl dh lgk;rk yh tk ldrh gSA bl izdkj ekuuh; loksZPp U;k;ky; }kjk nh x;h o.khZr fof/k }kjk iqfyl tkap vk[;k dks laKku esa fy;k tk ldrk gSA iqfyl tkap vk[;k ds fo:) fdlh rjg dh dksbZ vkifRr ugha gSA izFken`"V;k ;g izrhr gksrk gS fd vkosnd }kjk ek= eux<Ur rF;ksa ds vk/kkj ij ;g izkFkZuk i= izLrqr fd;k x;k gS] tks fujLr fd;s tkus ;ksX; gSA vkns'k izkFkhZ }kjk izLrqr izkFkZuki= vUrxZr /kkjk&156¼3½ na0iz0la0 fujLr fd;k tkrk gSA "

8. To dispute the aforesaid observations made in the order impugned, no document has been placed on record.

9. Moreover, before this Court the applicant has also not placed any record/evidence to establish that the land in issue, i.e. land of Gata No.290, 296, 289 is the ancestral property of the applicant.

10. Having considered the aforesaid, this Court is of the view that the case set up in the complaint is a bogus case and complaint/application under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C. was filed with ulterior motive and taking note of the same, this Court finds no force in the present application. It is, accordingly, dismissed. Cost made easy. Order Date :- 22.1.2025 ML/- MUNNA LAL High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, Lucknow Bench
