2. By order dated 23.08.2012 notices were directed to be issued
upon O.P. No.2. Notice has been effected upon the O.P. No. 2. Thereafter
the matter was listed on 28.02.2022, 27.07.2022 and 16.06.2023
however till date the O.P. No. 2 has not appeared. It appears that O.P.
No.2 has lost interest.
3. This petition has been filed for quashing the F.I.R. in connection
with Lalpur P.S. Case No. 85 of 2010, corresponding to G.R. No. 1582 of
2010 and also for quashing of order dated 30.06.2012 whereby non-
bailable warrant of arrest has been issued against the petitioner,
pending in the Court of learned Judicial Magistrate, Ist Class, Ranchi.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that one Ashok
Kumar Chaturvedi lodged an F.I.R. against Bishwajeet Dey, Ranbir Singh
and Rohit Gupta alleging therein that the main accused Bishwajeet Dey
has asked certain amount from the informant towards admission of his
son in Medical College and accordingly he had paid Rs. 14 lakhs to the
main accused Bishwajeet Dey and it is also alleged that his friends
Ranbir Singh and Rohit Gupta @ Bunty also helped him in cheating the
informant and accordingly, the case was registered.
5. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the
petitioner has no role and there is no allegation against the petitioner
and only on the basis of application of Investigating Officer non-bailable
warrant of arrest has been issued against the petitioner. He further
submits that so far accused Bishwajeet Dey and Rahul Gupta are
concerned they have faced the trial and by judgment dated 27.09.2012
Bishwajeet Dey has been convicted under section 420 of the I.P.C. and
accused Rahul Gupta has been acquitted on the basis of compromise
between Rahul Gupta and informant.
06. It appears that even in the supplementary chargesheet this
petitioner was not made accused and the main accused has already been
convicted by the said judgment.
7. Learned counsel for the State was not able to justify the action
of police officer.
8. Accordingly, the order dated 30.06.2012 passed in connection
with Lalpur P.S. Case No. 85 of 2010, corresponding to G.R. No. 1582 of
