THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.203 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner approaches this Court with a prayer to quash the complaint on the ground that the investigation agency registered a case after arrest of the other accused in this case, which clearly shows the malafide intention of the investigation agency. It is seen from the record that they were taken from the house and subsequently the case is registered. The said fact is a matter for trial. It cannot be a ground to quash the complaint against the present petitioner herein. It is also reported by the respondent counsel that in an earlier occasion the application filed under section 482 of Cr.P.C was dismissed by this Court. The learned counsel for the petitioner raised this point as a new point to quash the complaint. This Court is of the definite view that the registration of F.I.R subsequent to arrest is not a ground to quash the investigation at this stage. Hence, this Court is not inclined to quash the complaint. In any event, the Police Officer is directed to investigate the matter in accordance with law and that too availing the new amendments made in the Criminal Procedure Code, in connection with arrest of the accused concerned. With the above observations, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with this petition shall stand closed. ________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 24th January, 2011 VJL/RNS
