It is too early for this Court, in a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C, to consider whether the case against the petitioner is prima facie false and that FIR is liable to be quashed and investigation is liable to be stayed. In case the Police, after investigation, files a final report charge- sheeting the petitioner and in case grounds exist to assail the charge sheet, the petitioner may work out his remedies by moving the appropriate court. This Crl.M.C is disposed of directing the Police not to unnecessarily harass the petitioner during investigation. Dated this the 25th day of June, 2010 V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) dmb
