Summary The Mattancherry Judicial First Class Magistrate dismissed an accused's petition seeking a hearing under Section 175(3) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNSS), holding that accused persons have no right to be heard during the preliminary inquiry stage before a complaint is forwarded for FIR registration. The court distinguished Section 175(3) from Section 223 BNSS, noting that the right to hearing applies only when cognizance is taken, not during the earlier investigative inquiry phase; notice to the accused is required only if they are public servants accused of acts during official duties. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
