Crl. Misc. No.M-723 of 2011 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No.M-723 of 2011 Date of Decision: 12.01.2011 Vipin Rinwa & ors. ....Petitioners Versus State of Punjab ....Respondent CORAM : Hon'ble Ms. Justice Nirmaljit Kaur Present:- Mr. Gulshan Mehta, Advocate for the petitioners. ***** 1. Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? ** NIRMALJIT KAUR, J. (ORAL) This is a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C for quashing of FIR No.115 dated 19.08.2009 under Sections 148, 149, 323, 380 and 452 of IPC registered at Police Station, City Fazilka and all consequential proceedings arising thereof. The only argument raised by the learned counsel for the petitioners is that earlier a DDR was lodged. However, no action was taken on that. Subsequently, the present FIR was lodged. There is discrepancy in the allegation made in the DDR and that of the FIR. It is further contended that no such incident had taken place and the FIR is false. The said argument is a matter of defence and a question which can be subsequently decided only in trial and after recording of the evidence. The same cannot be made a ground for quashing of FIR. A Crl. Misc. No.M-723 of 2011 2 legitimate prosecution cannot be quashed at the threshold on the above ground as raised herein. No merit. Dismissed. (NIRMALJIT KAUR) 12.01.2011 JUDGE gurpreet
