C-482 No. 473 of 2011 Hon. Prafulla C. Pant, J. Mrs. Prabha Naithani, Advocate, present for the petitioner. Mr. M.A. Khan, Brief Holder, present for the State Heard. By means of this petition, moved under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, the petitioner has sought quashing of the proceedings of Criminal Case No. 78 of 2011, State Vs. Naresh Kumar and others, relating to offences punishable under Section 420, 468, 471 of I.P.C., pending in the court of Judicial Magistrate, Narendra Nagar, District Tehri Garhwal. Learned counsel for the petitioner pleaded that the petitioner is innocent. The allegation in the case is that a forged copy of a letter purporting to have been issued by Secretary, School Education, was received by the local officer at Tehri, asking to adjust / transfer the co-accused Naresh Kumar, an Assistant Teacher, from District Tehri to District Dehradun. It is alleged by the prosecution that the petitioner received ` 55,000/- through cheque from co-accused Naresh Kumar for getting prepared the forged transfer order. Having heard learned counsel for the parties, and after going through the papers on record, this court is not inclined to interfere with the trial of the case. Therefore, without expressing any opinion as to the final merits of the case, the petition under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. is dismissed with the observation that if the petitioner Rajesh Kumar surrenders before the court concerned, his bail application shall be heard and disposed of without unreasonable delay.
