WPCRL No. 908 of 2011 with CLMA No. 10929 of 2011 Hon'ble Prafulla C. Pant, J. Ms. Anjali Noliyal, Advocate, present for the petitioner. Mr. S.S. Adhikari, A.G.A., present for the State. Heard. By means of this writ petition moved under Article 226 of Constitution of India, the petitioner has sought quashing of the FIR dated 24.09.2011, registered as crime no. 243 of 2011, relating to offence punishable under section 135 Electricity Act, 2003, Police Station Bhagwanpur, District Hardwar. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that on 02.07.2011, meter of the petitioner was checked, and found that there was no irregularity. It is also submitted that after a period of 37 days the FIR in question is got lodged alleging that the petitioner was committing theft of electricity. I have considered the submissions of learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned counsel for the State and perused the relevant papers. It appears that after 02.07.2011, on 17.08.2011, a team of officers of Power Corporation visited the site, and on complaint of the theft of electricity the meter was taken out, and sent for examination. On 24.09.2011, a report was received that the meter was found tempered from inside, and controlled by the remote equipment. In the above circumstances, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the investigation of the case. The writ petition is dismissed with the observation that if the petitioner Iqbal surrenders before the court concerned his bail application shall be heard, and disposed of without unreasonable delay. (Stay application no. 10929 of 2011, stands disposed of). (Prafulla C. Pant, J.) Parul 17.10.2011
