IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.21777 of 2002 PADMA PRASAD Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 12 04.12.2009. Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner has come to this court for quashing entire criminal proceeding including order taking cognizance order dated 15.6.2002 in a case registered under section 7 of the E.C.Act. Prosecution case in short is that on 3.12.1998 a raiding party headed by the Executive Magistrate raided and inspected godown, office and stock register of M/s Indane Services, Ram Chandrapur and found shortage of 30 and 16 empty and filled cylinders respectively. Some cylinders were found to be less than the standard weight. The petitioner submits that the raid has been conducted in violation of clause 19 of the LPG(Regulation, Supply & Distribution) Order, 1993 as the officials of raiding party were not the appropriate authority for this purpose. Petitioner further submits that she is an old lady of 70 years. It appears petitioner is challenging order of June 2006 in the year 2009, as such, this Court is not inclined to quash the order in question. The instant cr.misc.case is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to raise this point at the time of framing of charge. Shashi. (Samarendra Pratap Singh,J.)
