Order

1. After arguing for some time, 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.

as not pressed with liberty to the petitioner to submit a detailed
representation to the concerned Superintendent of Police averring

consider the contents of the same and thereafter, issue necessary
instructions to the Investigating Officer within 30 days thereof. All
the relevant documents with the representation shall also be taken
into consideration. The parties will be at liberty to approach this
Court again, if grievance arises.
4. The offences alleged against the petitioner is under Sections
420 and 406 of IPC. 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. The
petitioner shall be at liberty take up all the issued at appropriate
stage and file a fresh application with regard to the matter in
question.
5. Stay petition also stands disposed of.
