Subhash Yadav and 2 Others v. State of Up and Another
Case brief
What is this about?
Section 482 application dismissed; U.P. Gangster Act 1986 Section 3(1); Rule 5(3)(a) Gangster Rules 2021 approving/forwarding authority procedure; gang-chart Annexure No. 4 joint meeting; chargesheet 05.08.2024; cognizance order 04.09.2024; Case Crime No. 01 of 2024; PS Rampur Manjha; District Ghazipur; Special Session Trial No. 915 of 2024; applicants Subhash Yadav and 2 others; counsel Anand Dev Dwivedee, Indrajeet Kumar Shukla, Kaushal Mishra; AGA for State; judge Saurabh Srivastava; decided 17 September 2025.
What did the court decide?
By bare perusal of the records it cannot be said that the procedure mandated on the approving authority as well as the forwarding authority under Rule 5(3)(a) of the Gangster Rules, 2021 has not been followed (the AGA having shown, via the gang-chart at Annexure No. 4, that the requisite joint meeting preceded initiation under the Gangster Act); consequently no interference with the impugned chargesheet and cognizance order is required.
