IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Criminal Misc. Application No.1012 of 2011 (U/s 482 Cr.P.C.) Ashish Sharma & another ………. Petitioners Versus State of Uttarakhand & antoher ..…. Respondents Dated: November 9, 2011 Sri Bhuvnesh Joshi, Advocate for the petitioners Sri S.S. Adhikari, AGA for the State/respondent no.1 Hon’ble Servesh Kumar Gupta , J. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties, it appears that the incident is of dated 8.6.2008 at about 8:40 PM, when the petitioners along with two other co-accused persons were indulged in fighting of their pet dogs for their pleasures. The place was Harki Pauri, Haridwar and at the relevant time, there was a considerable crowd on the said place after the performance of Aarti to river Ganga. The respondent no.2 checked the accused persons and asked them not to do so in view of the fact that the said fighting may result in making any pilgrim injured because of dog biting. Hearing this direction from the police personnel (respondent no.2), all the four accused persons, including the petitioners, started hurling abuses and throwing a challenge before him. When the respondent no.2 strived to persuade the petitioners, the latter enraged and began to beat the policeman with their fists and slips. They also tried to snatch his S.L.R. (firing weapon) and also tore his uniform. The FIR of the said incident was lodged, which resulted in submission of the chargesheet for the offence of Sections 332, 353, 504 and 506 IPC. All the petitioners are the resident of a nearby place of Harki Pauri. 2 Learned counsel for the petitioners argued that in the FIR, three persons were named and one was unnamed, while the chargesheet has been submitted only against the petitioners. This argument is not tenable at all and taking into consideration the seriousness of the entire facts and circumstances of the case, the Court is not inclined to give any relief to the petitioners. The petition is liable to be dismissed at the threshold. It is dismissed accordingly. (Servesh Kumar Gupta, J.) November 9, 2011 Rajeev Dang
