    The court partly allowed the accused's discharge application under Section 227 CrPC. It discharged the accused from offences under the Mines and Minerals Act (Sections 4(1), 4(1)A, 21) and Gujarat Mineral Rules (3, 21) on the ground that Section 22 of the Mines and Minerals Act requires cognizance only upon written complaint by authorized government officials, not via FIR/chargesheet. However, the case regarding theft charges under IPC Sections 379 and 114 (involving illegal sand mining worth Rs. 5,99,86,766) was remitted to the Magistrate's court for further proceedings.
