Case No. 208 of 2017 instituted for the offence under Sections 419, 420 and 408 of the Indian Penal Code.
From the written report it appears that in the year 2012-13 in the Shahpur Block Mung seeds were distributed by the then Block Agricultural Officer, Prithvinath Yadav, Madan Kumar, Om Prakash Singh, Sunil Kumar Singh, Ajay Kumar Singh and others. The allegation is made that in the year 2016 random survey of the relevant register was done by Assistant Director and the statement of farmers were recorded. The farmers disclosed that forged signature has been done on the register.
In this manner, from the written report itself it appears that petitioner was nowhere involved in distributing the seeds in the year 2012-13. He was simply proprietor of the seed shop and the seeds have
