ANJANA PRAKASH ORAL ORDER 2/ 24-08-2012 The Petitioner seeks quashing of the order dated 10.02.2012 passed by the Judicial Magistrate, 1st class, Barh, in Complaint Case No.13-C of 2011 by which he has taken cognizance under [STATUTE] .

Further submission is that facts of the case appear to be malicious as also that no offence under [STATUTE] is made out.
