Crl. Misc. Appl. No. 204/01 (Old No. 683/98) Hon’ble Irshad Hussain, J. None appear for the petitioner. Heard Sri A. Rab learned Addl. G.A and perused the record. The petition was filed under section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short ‘Code’) challenging the order of taking cognizance under section 190(1)(a) of the Code after rejecting the final report filed by the police in criminal case no. 303/1993. No stay was granted when the petition was filed before the Allahabad High Court. The case being old one and that must have been decided long ago on merit according to law and therefore, the petition had been rendered infructuous and is dismissed as such. Consign. Dated 21.5.2004 (Irshad Hussain, J.) Rawat
