Hello Sir and Ma'am.
While reading chaper 19 of the CRPC, I came across a case Bahori Vs State of UP 2017, in which conveyed that - Non Cognizable Case will be treated as a case filed otherwise than on a police report.
I got confused here.
First, if it is a Non Cognizable matter, I understand that the case will go under 155 and the Complainant will be referred to a magistrate to file complaint.
After this 190, 200, 202, 204, etc will follow.
But, after that, why will it be proceeded with as a case other than on a police report? That is a category under the Warrants chapter. Won't Non-Cognizable case be treated under the Summon Cases chapter? And under Summon procedure, do we have the bifurcation of 'Case on Police Report' and otherwise than on a police report?
Plus, is every cognizable case proceeded under Warrant procedure and Non cognizable under Summon procedure?
Not able to understand the actual funda around this.
