Magistrate held that the omission of the date in the charge rendered the prosecution unable to bring a complete charge to court at that stage; because full trial had not commenced and evidence had not been called, the defect was curable and the appropriate remedy was discharge not amounting to acquittal under s173(g) CPC, with bail returned, allowing prosecution to amend and continue proceedings later.
