IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH ***** CRM No.M-26791 of 2011(O & M) Date of decision : 5.9.2011 Joginder Singh ........Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab ......Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA Present:- Mr. Arun Takhi, Advocate, for the petitioner --- AJAI LAMBA, J (Oral) : This petition filed under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973, prays for quashing of FIR No.79 dated 16.10.2010 under Section 22 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, registered at Police Station Hariana, District Hoshiarpur, placed on record as Annexure P-3 and subsequent proceedings. On a query of this Court, it has been disclosed that final report under Section 173 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973, has been filed. In my opinion, this petition cannot be allowed only on consideration of the FIR, for the reason, that incriminating material/evidence would have been collected during the course of investigation under Chapter XII of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973. Without reference to that material, proper adjudication is not possible. This petition is dismissed, however, with liberty to the petitioner to file a better consolidated petition. (AJAI LAMBA) JUDGE 5.9.2011 akm
