Court No. - 88

HON'BLE SANJIV KUMAR, J.

Heard Mr. Santosh Kumar Tiwari, learned counsel for the revisionist, learned AGA for the State and perused the record.

This Criminal Revision under Section 438/448 of Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (in short 'BNSS') has been filed against impugned order dated 22.08.2026 passed by learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Court No.14, Shahjahanpur in Criminal Misc. Case No. 720 of 2026, Police Station Kotwali, District Shahjahanpur, whereby the learned Magistrate has rejected the application filed on behalf of the revisionist under Section 173(4) BNSS.

Learned counsel for the revisionist submits that the impugned order is not sustainable in the eye of law because the offence was committed by the accused and the Trial Court has rejected the application on the ground that it has no territorial jurisdiction to entertain the application, as such, the same is liable to be quashed.
