Order
10/02/2025
1. The FIR No.157/2023 got lodged on 03.08.2023 for the
alleged offence under Sections 420 and 504 of the IPC. It
concerns a business transaction in which it is alleged that the
complainant was swindled at the hands of the petitioner. According
to the complainant, the commodity was not of the standard that
was promised at the time of the sale agreement. The matter is
under investigation.
2. In view of the facts and circumstances of the case so also
taking note of Sections 41 and 41 A of the Cr.P.C. and the
judgment rendered by Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of
Arnesh Kumar Vs. State of Bihar reported in AIR 2014 SC
2756, it is felt apt to dispose of the instant misc. petition with the
[2025:RJ-JD:8032] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-4795/2023]
direction that through out the course of the investigation the
petitioner shall not be arrested.
3. It is made clear that in the event any offence is found proved
against the petitioner, then instead of affecting arrest at once,
looking to the nature and gravity of the offence and the quantum
of punishment, he shall not be arrested in connection with the FIR
No.157/2023 registered at Police Station Shivganj (Erinpura),
District Sirohi; instead thereof one month's prior notice shall be
given to him, so that he may exercise his legitimate rights.
4. Stay petition also stands disposed of.
5. Nothing would preclude the petitioner from submitting his
documents to the Investigating Officer to assist in reaching a just
conclusion of the investigation.
