IN THE PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURT AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No.M-20923 of 2011(O&M) Date of Decision: 13.07.2011 Anil Kumar ...Petitioner Versus State of Haryana ..Respondent CORAM: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. N.S. Shekhawat, Advocate for the petitioner. ..... RAJESH BINDAL, J. Prayer in the present petition is for quashing of FIR No.50 dated 17.4.2010 registered under Section 302/34 IPC, Police Station Sadar, Rewari. The only ground raised by the learned counsel for the petitioner seeking quashing of the FIR is that the other co-accused in the same FIR, have already been acquitted by the Court but the petitioner was declared proclaimed offender. The prayer is for appreciating the evidence already on record produced during the trial of the other co-accused for quashing the FIR against the present petitioner. In the alternative, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner will surrender before the learned court below and apply for bail. However, his further submission is that considering the fact that the other co-accused in the same FIR, have already been acquitted and there being no material on record, the trial in the court below be expedited. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, I do not find any substance in the arguments raised for quashing the FIR. This Court would not like to appreciate the evidence already brought on record by the prosecution during trial of other co-accused and quash the FIR against the petitioner, who was declared proclaimed offender. However, considering the circumstances of the case trial Court is directed to expedite the trial. Disposed of. (RAJESH BINDAL) JUDGE 13.07.2011 sharmila
