State of PunjabJudgments/Order 1.Delayed Institution Of Police Report Does Not Threaten Assumption Of Cognizance U/S 468 CrPC: Punjab & Haryana High Court Case Title : Sukhpal Singh Khaira v. State of Punjab and Another Citation:2022 LiveLaw (PH) 240 The Punjab and Haryana High Court has made it clear that delay on part of investigating agency in filing the charge sheet does not attract Section 468 CrPC, which prescribes bar on taking cognizance after lapse of the period of limitation. 2.Defence Counsel Must Remain "Completely Awakened" During Cross-Examination, S.311 CrPC Not Meant To "Cure Defects": Punjab & Haryana HC Case Title : Raman Kumar v. State of Haryana and Another Citation:2022 LiveLaw (PH) 241 The Punjab and Haryana High Court has made it clear that Section 311 CrPC, which makes provision for recall of material witnesses, is not meant to "cure defects" in the defence and thus, the defence counsel must remain "completely awakened" during cross-examination of witnesses. 3."Sacred Relation Of Uncle & Niece Was Besmirched": PH High Court Upholds Life Sentence Of Man Who Raped 12-Year-Old Niece Case title - Chaman Lal Chimnu v. State of Haryana [CRA-D-700-DB-2010] Citation:2022 LiveLaw (PH) 242 The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Wednesday upheld the life sentence awarded to a man who had raped his own 12-year-old niece in the year 2008. Noting that the accused was the real uncle of the victim, the Court remarked thus: "The factual matrix of this appeal is unfortunately related to a sordid and obnoxious incident, where the appellant, who is the real uncle of the victim, raped his niece, a girl child of the tender age of 12 years. The result was that the sacred relationship of uncle and niece was besmirched. Such offenders are a menace to the civilised society and have to be dealt with strictly as per law. It is an act, which is not only a blow to her supreme honour and offends her self-esteem and dignity, it degrades and humiliates the victim and where the victim is a helpless child or a minor, it leaves behind a traumatic experience. Such crime is not only a crime against a minor innocent child, rather it is a crime against the entire society." 4.Order 16 Rule 1 CPC | 15 Days Period For Providing List Of Witnesses To Court Is Directory In Nature: Punjab & Haryana High Court Case Title : Gurjit Singh v. Kartar Singh and Another Citation:2022 LiveLaw (PH) 243 The Punjab and Haryana High Court recently held that a period of 15 days that has been prescribed under Order 16 Rule 1 of CPC for the purpose of providing list of witnesses to the Court is directory in nature in view of Rule 16(3) which permits any party to summon any witness other than the witnesses named in the list. 5.Criminal Proceedings Not For Realization Of Disputed Dues: Punjab & Haryana High Court Refuses To Cancel Anticipatory Bail Case Title: Anil Taneja versus State of Haryana and others Citation:2022 LiveLaw (PH) 244 The Punjab and Haryana High Court has reiterated that criminal proceedings are not for realization of disputed dues.
