Laishram Ibomcha Meitei Respondent BEFORE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. SIDDHARTH MRIDUL HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE GOLMEI GAIPHULSHILLU KABUI ORDER 03. 09. 2024 Siddharth Mridul, C. J. : Mr. Athouba Khaidem, learned Government Advocate, appears on behalf of the applicant; and Mr. Ch. Bimolchandra, learned counsel, appears on behalf of the respondent. The present application has been instituted on behalf of the State of Manipur, the applicant, praying as follows: “In the premises stated above, your Lordship may graciously be pleased to grant leave for entertaining the Govt. Criminal Appeal for the ends of justice. ” At the outset, it is observed that the present appeal assails the judgment and order dated 20. 01.
2023, whereby the respondent was acquitted of charges framed against him for the commission of offence under Sections 376 IPC & 302 IPC. Despite opportunities, no affidavit-in-objection has been filed by the respondent. MC (GCA) No. 1 of 2024 Page 1 Having heard the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the parties, we are of the view that the State of Manipur has been able to make out a good case for grant of leave to appeal against the impugned judgment and order dated 20. 01. 2023, acquitting the sole respondent. The present miscellaneous application is allowed and disposed of accordingly. JUDGE CHIEF JUSTICE Sandeep MC (GCA) No. 1 of 2024 Page 2
