Crl. Misc. No. M-27707 of 2011 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No. M-27707 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision: 12.9.2011 Rajbir & others ...Petitioners Versus State of Haryana & others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Rajesh Malik, Advocate for the petitioners. Rajan Gupta, J (oral). This is a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for quashing of FIR No.232 dated 3rd September, 2011, under Sections 452, 323, 506 read with Section 34 IPC, registered at Police Station Kaneena, District Mohindergarh and the subsequent proceedings arising therefrom. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that petitioners have been falsely implicated in the case. One of the petitioners was, in fact, out of station on the date, the alleged occurrence took place. According to him, petitioners No.2 to 6 have been named by one Suresh Devi due to some old enmity. Thus, FIR deserves to be quashed. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and given careful thought to the facts of the case. The FIR was registered on the statement of Ritu daughter of Mahabir Singh as recently on 3rd September, 2011. She alleged that she and her mother were watching T.V. at their house at about 8.30 P.M. At Crl. Misc. No. M-27707 of 2011 2 that time, Rajbir Singh entered their house and started abusing them. He thereafter, assaulted them with an iron pipe (Phookni). Other accused also entered the house and gave fist blows to her mother. One of the accused was armed with an axe and attacked the complainant with the same. Due to the commotion, villagers came to the spot and saved the complainant side. The accused had come in a Maruti Car bearing No.HR-14-B-8350. It appears that the petitioners have approached this court merely after a lapse of ten days of the date of lodging of the FIR i.e. 3rd September, 2010. Admittedly, investigation of the case is in progress. The petitioners have sought quashing of the FIR on the basis of certain factual issues raised before this court. In my considered opinion, the present petition is misconceived. The FIR was lodged by Ritu daughter of Mahabir Singh, a student of B.A. (Final) in a local college. She stated before the police that the accused assaulted her and her mother at about 8.30 P.M. on 3rd September, 2011. In view of the allegations that the accused assaulted two ladies at night in their residence, thorough investigation in the matter is necessary. The petition does not merit any interference in inherent jurisdiction of this court. Dismissed. (RAJAN GUPTA) JUDGE 12.9.2012 'rajpal'
