Co.operative Societies Act, 1964. 2. Heard both sides. 3. The allegation against the petitioner is of misappropriation of substantial monies and making irregular appointments etc. It is the contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner that one of the allegations of depositing the surplus funds of the bank in different banks from where the amounts could not be recovered and in that particular period he was not working in that bank, but there are other allegations like misappropriation of funds, as already referred. That being the case, it is not a case for quashing the proceedings. 4. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. However, the petitioner is at liberty to file discharge petition before the trial Court and the trial Court shall dispose of the same uninfluenced by any of the observations made in this order. ___________________ P.
