PETITION ON BEHALF OF THE SUSPECT/S SEEKING SUPPLY OF COPY OF COMPLAINT, SOLEMN AFFIRMATION AND RELIED-UPON DOCUMENTS;

 

The humble petition of the Suspects above-named;

 

MOST RESPECTFULLY SHEWETH;

 

1. That the present complaint case has been instituted by the complainant against the suspects and is presently pending before this Learned Court.

 

2. That the suspects have recently received a pre-cognizance notice issued by this Learned Court directing their appearance and/or response in connection with the present complaint case.

 

3. That, however, along with the said notice, no copy of the complaint petition, no copy of the statement on solemn affirmation of the complainant, nor any copy of the documents relied upon by the complainant has been furnished or served upon the suspects.

 

4. That in the absence of the aforesaid documents, the suspects are completely unaware of the precise allegations, averments, claims, assertions, and materials placed by the complainant before this Learned Court.

 

5. That the suspects submit that mere receipt of the pre-cognizance notice, without the accompanying complaint and supporting materials, has deprived them of an effective opportunity to understand the nature and particulars of the allegations sought to be made against them.

 

6. That unless copies of the complaint petition, the statement on solemn affirmation, and the documents relied upon by the complainant are supplied to the suspects, they shall not be in a position to properly answer the allegations, furnish their explanation, controvert the statements made by the complainant, or effectively participate in the proceedings before this Learned Court.

 

7. That supply of the aforesaid documents is necessary in the interest of fairness, transparency, and observance of the principles of natural justice, so that the suspects may be afforded a meaningful opportunity to place their version before this Learned Court.

 

8. That no prejudice shall be caused to the complainant if the documents sought for are directed to be supplied, whereas grave prejudice and hardship shall be caused to the suspects if they are compelled to respond to allegations of which they have no knowledge.

 

9. That the present application is bona fide and made solely for the purpose of obtaining the relevant materials forming the basis of the complaint proceeding.

 

In the premises aforesaid, it is most humbly prayed that Your Honour may graciously be pleased to;

 

a) Direct the complainant and/or the concerned office of this Learned Court to furnish and supply to the suspects copies of the complaint petition filed in the present case;

 

b) Direct supply of a copy of the statement on solemn affirmation of the complainant recorded before this Learned Court;

 

c) Direct supply of copies of all documents, papers, records, correspondence, agreements, invoices, statements, or other materials relied upon by the complainant in instituting and prosecuting the present complaint case;

 

d) Grant reasonable time to the suspects to file their response, explanation, or objection, if any, after receipt of the aforesaid documents; and

 

e) Pass such further or other order or orders as Your Honour may deem fit and proper.

 

And for this act of kindness, the suspects, as in duty bound, shall ever pray.
