Mentioned out of turn at the time of rising of the Court. 2.

Heard Ms. Mahajan, learned Advocate for Applicant and Ms. Bajoria, learned APP for Respondent - State. 3.

Applicant is a developer / Builder. Learned advocate for Applicant would inform the Court that crime has been lodged by the First Informant in view of an accident met by the niece of the First Informant of having fallen down from 4th Floor of the building. She would submit that the building is seven year old. She would inform the Court that First Informant's sister along with her daughter was attending a Satya Narayan Pooja on the 3rd Floor of the building when daughter of his sister went up to the 4th Floor and had a fatal fall due

to certain safety issues in the building. Incident incidentally led to death of the child. She would persuade the Court to consider the fact that the developer had constructed the said building seven years ago after which the same was handed over to the flat purchasers. Facts of the present case show that safety issue stated is that there was no railing on the 4th floor because of which the victim child suffered the fatal fall from there.

4.
