the affidavit of the complainant and the law laid down by the
Hon'ble Apex Court of India in cases of Gian Singh (supra),
Narinder Singh (supra) & Saju P.R. (supra), and co-ordinate
Bench judgments of this Court in cases of Mubin Khan (supra)
& Hardik Sharma (supra), this Court deems it just and proper
to quash the FIR and consequential criminal proceeding.
