Order
18/08/2022
This criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed by the
petitioner under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing FIR No.242/2020
dated 15.08.2020 registered at Police Station Vijay Nagar, District
Ajmer for the offence under Sections 452, 323, 354 (B), 34 of IPC.
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners
have been falsely implicated in this case, due to enmity. Learned
counsel for the petitioners also submits that petitioner No.1 Ashok
Sharma has lodged the FIR No.142/2015 in Police Station Vijay
Nagar, District Ajmer against the complainant. After investigation,
(2 of 3) [CRLMP-3649/2020]
Investigating Officer had filed a final negative report but on the
protest petition of the petitioner No.1. Trial court had taken
cognizance against the complainant under Sections 143, 323, 427
and 452 of IPC and trial is going on. Learned counsel for the
petitioners also submits that petitioners were Advocates in
Criminal complaint No.44/2020 in which complainant is Suman
Devi and present respondent Deepesh Soni as accused No.2. So,
complainant had filed the present FIR as a counter blast. This is
amount of abuse of process of law. So, FIR be quashed.
Learned counsel for the petitioners has reliance upon the
following Judgments : (1) Ahmad Ali Quaraishi & Anr. Vs.
State of U.P. & Anr. reported in AIR 2020 SC 788; (2)
Vineet Kumar & Ors. Vs. State of U.P,. & Anr. reported in
(2017) SCC 369 and (3) Anand Kumar Mohatta Vs. State
(Govt. of NCT of Delhi) Department of Home reported in
AIR 2019 SC 210.
Learned counsel for the respondent as well as learned Public
Prosecutor have opposed the arguments advanced by learned
counsel for the petitioners and submitted that after investigation,
Investigating Officer had found proved the offence against the
petitioner No.1 Ashok Sharma under Sections 452, 323, 354(B),
34 IPC and against the petitioner No.2 Smt. Mamta Sharma under
Sections 452, 323, 34 IPC. So, the petition be dismissed.
I have considered the arguments advanced by learned
counsel for the petitioners as well as learned counsel for the
respondent and learned Public Prosecutor.
After investigation, Investigating Officer had found proved
the offence against the petitioner No.1 Ashok Sharma under
Sections 452, 323, 354(B), 34 IPC and against the petitioner No.2
(3 of 3) [CRLMP-3649/2020]
Smt. Mamta Sharma under Sections 452, 323, 34 IPC. In my
considered opinion, no ground is made out for quashment of the
FIR. However, petitioners are free to raise all the objections before
the trial court at the time of arguments on charge.
The Criminal Miscellaneous Petition stands dismissed.
All the pending applications also stand disposed of.
