 Crl.MC.No.6459 OF 2016(F)        2




                               ORDER

To quash the Annexure 1 FIR, Annexure 2 final

report in crime No.392/2016 of Chavara Police

Station, the accused came up.

2. Going by the allegation it is clear that

what is involved is only a civil dispute. The

learned JFCM(temporary), Chavara had referred the

matter without knowing the content of the complaint

and without applying his mind, which has resulted

in the registration of a crime. It is so

unfortunate that a final report was also submitted

though the dispute involved is only a civil one.

Hence, the final report and the crime registered

and its further proceedings are hereby quashed.

Crl.M.C. is allowed accordingly.
