The instant petition has been filed by the petitioners with the following prayers :-
"(i) Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of certiorari to quash the impugned FIR dated 20.05.2021 in Case Crime No. 261 of 2021, under Sections 147, 452, 336, 323, 504, 506 I.P.C. and Section 3(1)(Da) S.C./S.T. Act, Police Station - Kurawali, District- Mainpuri .
(ii) Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents not to arrest the petitioners in pursuance of the FIR dated 20.05.2021 in Case Crime No. 261 of 2021, under Sections 147, 452, 336, 323, 504, 506 I.P.C. and Section 3(1)(Da) S.C./S.T. Act, Police Station - Kurawali, District- Mainpuri".
The submission is that all alleged offences are punishable with imprisonment of seven years, therefore the police authorities are bound to follow the procedure laid down under Section 41-A Cr.P.C. The petitioners have been wrongly implicated and could not be arrested. Learned counsel for the petitioners has placed reliance on the judgement of this Court dated 28.01.2021 in Criminal Misc. Writ Petition No.17732 of 2020 Vimal Kumar and 3 others vs. State of UP and 3 others, in which guidelines have been framed following the judgment of Apex Court in different cases, relating to offenses providing punishment of seven years or less.
We have gone through the impugned first information report and we are of the opinion that the guidelines framed by this Court in the above noted judgement are equally applicable to the facts of the instant case.
Accordingly, the instant petition also stands disposed of in terms of judgement dated 28.01.2021 in Criminal Misc. Writ Petition No.17732 of 2020 Vimal Kumar and 3 others vs. State of UP and 3 others.
