Mr. Sukhdev Singh, Advocate, for respondent No.2. AJAI LAMBA, J. (Oral) 1 This petition has been filed under Section 482, Code of Criminal Procedure, praying for quashing of FIR No.822 dated 13.11.2009 under Section 420, Indian Penal Code, Police Station, Kotwali Bathinda, District Bathinda (Annexure P-1), and consequent proceedings. 2 In brief, it has been contended that one Naresh Kumar Bansal son of Des Raj, of Aradhna Recording Company, Bathinda, entered into an agreement with respondent No.2/complainant. The agreement has been placed on record as Annexure P-3. In regard to violation of the agreement, the FIR has been lodged. 3 It has been contended that the petitioners had no direct dealing with respondent No.2. The petitioners did some Criminal Misc. No.12492 -M of 2010 (O&M) 2 work for Naresh Kumar Bansal. In this regard reference has been made to affidavit dated 10.12.2004 (Annexure P-4). 4 Learned counsel for the petitioners, therefore, contends that the petitioners cannot be held liable for violation of any agreement between respondent No.2 and Naresh Kumar Bansal. 5 I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioners. 6 The challan has already been filed. It would be appropriate if the petitioners take all the pleas taken in this petition and as recorded hereinabove before the trial court, at the time of framing of charge. This court trusts that the trial court shall take into account the facts and circumstances and only thereafter, take a decision in regard to culpability of the petitioners. 7 The petition is, accordingly, disposed of.
