Order
27/05/2025
This criminal misc. petition under Section 528 BNSS filed by
the petitioners for quashing of the FIR No.81/2025, registered at
Police Station Rawatbhata, District Chittorgarh for the offences
under Section 85 of BNS, 2023.
The factual report dated 23.05.2025 is taken on record.
[2025:RJ-JD:25827] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-4270/2025]
Heard learned counsel for the parties at bar. Perused the
material as made available to this Court and gone through the
niceties of the matter.
This Court while exercising the powers under Section 528
BNSS cannot minutely go into the correctness of the allegations
levelled against the petitioners and upon a careful perusal of the
impugned FIR and the factual report dated 23.05.2025, this Court
prima facie finds that the offences alleged to have been committed
by the petitioners are triable by Court of Magistrate or do not
contain the maximum imprisonment of more than seven years,
and keeping in mind the provisions contained in Section 41, 41-A
Cr.P.C. as well as the judgment passed by the Hon'ble Supreme
Court in the case of Arnesh Kumar vs. State of Bihar, reported
in AIR 2014 SC 2756, the dictum of which squarely applies
mutatis mutandis to the present case, it is directed that in case,
the arrest of the petitioners is found to be absolutely necessary by
the Investigating Agencies, instead of affecting the arrest of the
petitioners at once, a prior notice of one month shall be given to
them so that they may exercise their legitimate rights. Needless to
say that the petitioners are not precluded from raising their
grievance before the trial Court.
With the aforesaid direction, the misc. petition filed under
Section 528 BNSS (482 Cr.P.C.) as well as stay application are
disposed of.
