This Criminal Miscellaneous Petition has been filed by the
petitioner under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing the FIR
No.216/2021 dated 14.07.2021 registered at Police Station Ranoli,
District Sikar for the Offences Punishable under Sections 420, 406
and 120-B IPC.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that respondent
No.2 is real brother of the petitioner. Petitioner had borrowed
money of Rs.10,000/- from respondent No.2 in the year 1993 but
he had returned the same but due to illiteracy, he had not taken
receipt of payment. Learned counsel for the petitioner also
submits that petitioner had asked to the respondent No.2 for
(2 of 3) [CRLMP-8279/2021]
returning of agreement but respondent No.2 told him that he
would destroyed it but he had not destroyed the said document
and filed the present FIR with mala-fide intention. Learned counsel
for the petitioner also submits that a bare reading of the FIR does
not disclose of any offence against the petitioner. Learned counsel
for the petitioner also submits that by making a false and
fabricated document dated 03.09.1995, respondent No.2 had filed
an application before Court of Collector (Stamp) Sikar-Division on
05.10.2020. In the said proceeding, petitioner had not engaged
any Advocate for his defense. Respondent No.2 had got the order
dated 18.02.2021 by the learned Court of Collector Stamp by
collusion. Learned counsel for the petitioner also submits that
respondent No.2 had lodged the present FIR with ulterior motive
and also submitted that petitioner had sold the land to Subhash
Kumar Jakhar by sale deed dated 16.04.2021. So, FIR lodged
against the petitioner be quashed.
Learned counsel for the respondent No.2 as well as learned
Public Prosecutor have opposed the arguments advanced by
learned counsel for the petitioner and submitted that after
investigation, Investigating Officer had found the offence(s) under
Section 420 and 406 IPC proved against the petitioner. Learned
counsel for the respondent also submitted that petitioner had sold
the disputed land to complainant-respondent on 01.02.1993 and
got payment of Rs.10,000/- and he had executed the stamp on
03.09.1995. Learned counsel for the respondent also submitted
that respondent had filed the petition before the Collector Stamp,
Sikar for impounding of stamp in which petitioner had engaged his
lawyer. After hearing both the parties, Collector Stamp had
ordered to deposit the deficit stamp and complainant had
(3 of 3) [CRLMP-8279/2021]
deposited the stamp as per the order. Learned counsel for the
respondent also submitted that petitioner wrongly sold the
disputed land to Subhash Kumar Jakhar. Learned counsel for the
respondent also submitted that petitioner had cheated the
respondent. So, petition be dismissed.
Learned counsel for the respondent has relied upon the
judgment of this Court in S.B. Criminal Miscellaneous
(Petition) No.6136/2019 (Satish Badaya Vs. State of
Rajasthan) decided on 24.02.2021.
I have considered the arguments advanced by learned
counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel for the
respondent and learned Public Prosecutor.
It is an admitted position that petitioner had sold the
disputed land to the respondent on 01.02.1993 and also executed
the stamp on 03.09.1995. After that, complainant had impounded
the stamp before Collector Stamp in which petitioner also
participated in the proceedings. Petitioner had wrongly sold the
disputed land to Subhash Kumar Jakhar. After investigation,
Investigating Officer had also found the offence(s) under Section
420 and 406 IPC proved against the petitioner. So, in my
considered opinion, no ground is made out for quashment of the
FIR. So, the present petition being devoid of merits and liable to
be dismissed.
Therefore, this Criminal Miscellaneous Petition stands
dismissed.
Stay application also stands disposed of.
