Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Public Prosecutor. Gone through the contents of the FIR and the other material made available on record.
After going through the nature of allegations leveled in the FIR and the gravity of the offence, this Court does not deem it appropriate to quash the FIR impugned and to hamper the course of investigation. However, looking to the totality of facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that the offence is exclusively triable by the Court of Magistrate or Section 41 of Cr.P.C. applies and looking to the applicability of the judgment passed by Hon'ble the Supreme Court in case of Arnesh Kumar

In the event, the representation is submitted, the concerned Superintendent of Police is directed to consider the submissions/grounds raised in the representation, and instruct the concerned Investigating Officer to conduct fair, impartial and expeditious investigation in the matter.
The requisite endorsement shall be made in the case diary as to the consideration of the representation.

If still thereafter it is decided that the arrest has become imperative; he would be given 15 days notice prior to affect the arrest.
It is directed to the officers to strictly follow the provisions of law and the judgment referred above, it should not be taken as a formality.
