Order 05/08/2025
1. Learned counsel for the petitioner does not want to press the
instant criminal misc. petition. However, he seeks liberty for the
petitioner to submit a representation to the concerned
Superintendent of Police with appropriate directions to decide the
same and issue necessary instructions to the concerned
Investigating Officer.
2. Accordingly, the instant criminal misc. petition as well as stay
petition are dismissed as not pressed with liberty to the petitioner
to submit a detailed representation to the concerned
Superintendent of Police averring therein all the grounds which
have been raised in this petition within a period of 10 days from
the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
3. In the event, the representation is submitted, the concerned
Superintendent of Police is directed to minutely and objectively
[2025:RJ-JD:34637] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-6286/2025]
consider the contents of the same and thereafter, issue necessary
instructions to the Investigating Officer. All the relevant
documents with the representation shall also be taken into
consideration. The representation shall be decided within a period
of 30 days from the date of receipt of the same. Till the
representation is decided, the petitioner shall not be arrested in
connection with FIR No.265/2025 registered at the Police Station
Sadar Chittorgarh, District Chittorgarh.
4. The offences alleged against the petitioner are under Sections
316(2), 318(4), 61(2), 238(b), 338, 336(3) and 340(2) of the
BNS. Thus, the provisions contained under Section 35 of BNSS
(Sections 41 and 41A of the CrPC) are applicable mutatis
mutandis and the judgment rendered by Hon'ble Supreme Court
in the case of Arnesh Kumar v. State of Bihar [AIR 2014 SC
2756] applies squarely in the present case, therefore, it is
deemed appropriate to direct the investigating officer that in the
event, the offences are found to be proved and the arrest of the
petitioner is absolutely necessary, then instead of affecting arrest
at once, a prior notice of 15 days shall be given to the petitioner.
Further the petitioner shall be at liberty to raise all permissible
objections and issues before the trial court at the appropriate
stage of proceedings
5. Pending applications, if any, stand disposed of.
