Order
15/01/2026
1. After arguing for some time, learned counsel for the
petitioners does not want to press the instant criminal misc.
petition. However, he seeks liberty for the petitioners 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 is disposed of
as not pressed with liberty to the petitioners 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 07 days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

(2 of 2) [CRLMP-314/2026]
3. In the event, the representation is submitted, the concerned
Superintendent of Police is directed to minutely and objectively
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. Till 30 days from the date of filing of representation, the
petitioners shall not be arrested in connection with FIR No. 32/2024
registered at the Police Station Jhab, Distt. Jalore.
5. The offences alleged against the petitioners are under Section
420, 419, 467, 468, 471 and 120B 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 petitioners is absolutely necessary, then instead of
affecting arrest at once, a prior notice of 15 days shall be given to
the petitioners. The petitioners shall be at liberty take up all the
issued at appropriate stage.
6. Stay petition also stands disposed of.
