Order
28/05/2025
1. The factual report dated 24.05.2025 received by the learned
Public Prosecutor from the office of SHO, Police Station Pur,
District Bhilwara is taken on record.
2. The factual report indicates that the investigation in relation
to the impugned FIR could not be completed by the Investigating
Agency for want of record by the Gram Panchayat Pansal, District
Bhilwara.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the
petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case. Drawing
attention of the Court towards the impugned FIR, learned counsel
submitted that a pure civil dispute between the parties has been
given a colour of criminal offence by the complainant due to
malafide and ulterior motives.
[2025:RJ-JD:26281] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-4417/2025]
4. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the
material as made available to this Court.
5. Having perused the impugned FIR and the factual report
dated 24.05.2025, this Court prima facie finds that the offence
alleged to have been committed by the petitioner is either triable
by a court of Magistrate and/or do not contain the maximum
punishment of more than seven years, and keeping in mind the
provisions contained in Sections (35 BNSS) 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 petitioner is found to be absolutely necessary by the
Investigating Agencies, instead of affecting the arrest of the
petitioner at once, a prior notice of one month shall be given to
him so that he may exercise his rights. Needless to say that the
petitioner is not precluded from raising his grievance before this
Court or the trial Court at an appropriate stage, if occasion so
arises.
6. With the aforesaid direction, the misc. petition filed under
Section 528 BNSS (482 Cr.P.C.) as well as stay application are
disposed of.
