Section 17(1) |
Upon a plain reading of the law it is clear that the said provision relates to trial only. This provision confers jurisdiction to the Shishu Adalat to hold trial of a case wherein a child comes in conflict with the law (আইনের সাথে সংঘাতে জড়িত শিশু) or comes in contact with the law (আইনের সংস্পশে আসা শিশু)). The proceedings of a criminal case get commenced in a Special Court, Tribunal or even Court of sessions after submission of the police report when the record is transmitted to the concerned Court or Tribunal, as the case may be, and it takes cognizance of the offence against an accused and the trial starts with the framing of charge.

Section 42 |
The High Court Division has no hesitation to hold that the learned judge of the Shishu Adalat, Chandpur acted illegally in entertaining the application for bail of the accused opposite party No.2 who is an adult person and enlarging him on bail when the case is under investigation and the record lies in the Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chandpur. In the facts and circumstances of the present case the accused opposite party no. 2 ought to have surrendered before the Court where the case is pending and the record thereof is lying i.e, before the Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chandpur.
