¶2

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Criminal Revisional Jurisdiction

¶3

CRR 292 of 2021

¶4

Kriti Agarwal -versus- The State of West Bengal & Anr.

¶5

Re : An application under Sections 397,401 and 482 of the Cr. P. C.

¶6

The revisional application has been preferred challenging the order dated 29.12.2020 passed by the learned chief Judicial Magistrate, Alipore in connection with S. L No. 143C of 2018.

¶7

The subject matter related to an application under Section 156(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure which was filed before the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Alipore and the averments therein were regarding the non-payment of maintenance and for prosecution of the opposite party under sections 31 and 32 of the P.W.D.V Act, 2005. The learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Alipore in his order observed that non-payment of the maintenance amount do not come within the ambit of breach of protection order as envisaged under Section 31 of the Act and as such, refused the prayer under Section 156(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

¶8

I find that there is no illegality in the order as it has been categorically observed that the order of maintenance under the P.W.D.V Act do not come within the provisions of Section 18 of the P.W.D.V. Act, 2005.

¶9

Having regard to the above, no interference is call for by this
