- 1 - IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO.1734 OF 2009 Shri Aba Rajaram Waghmode & Ors. .... Petitioners Vs. The State of Maharashtra & Anr. .... Respondents Shri Mahendra Shingade for the Petitioners. Shri A.S. Gadkari, APP, for the State. CORAM: BILAL NAZKI & A.R. JOSHI, JJ. DATED: 10TH AUGUST, 2009 P.C: We have seen the complaint made to the police. Prima facie it discloses an offence. However, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the complaint is a counter-blast as the petitioners have filed a case against the complainant. This may or may not be true but will have to be investigated by the investigating officer. It is further submitted that even the doctor has opined that there was no grievous hurt. If that is so, - 2 - that would also be taken into consideration by the investigating officer. Prima facie the FIR discloses offences which are cognizable. Therefore, the FIR cannot be quashed at this stage. The petition is dismissed. However, the dismissal of this petition should not be taken as an expression of opinion about the correctness or otherwise of the impugned FIR. BILAL NAZKI, J. A.R. JOSHI, J.
