That being so, the application moved by the appellant for default bail was stillborn and not maintainable in law, We cannot lose sight of the fact that the prosecution has now presented the challan after completing the investigation within the period authorized by the NIA Court”.Orders Passed U/S 12 Domestic Violence Act Can't Be Assailed Directly U/S 482 CrPC Unless Remedy Of Appeal Is Availed: J&K High CourtCase Title: Mrs. Syed Asma Balki Vs.
