Having gone through the contents of the First Information Report and after considering the submissions of learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State, this Court is of the view that whether the contents in the First Information Report are true or not are the matter of investigation. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court does not find it a fit case to quash the First Information Report, as prayed by learned counsel for the petitioner. 5. Therefore, without expressing any opinion as to the final merits of the case, the writ petition is dismissed summarily. (Stay application No. 8264 of 2008, also stands dismissed). (Prafulla C.
