(2) By means of this petition, moved under section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, the petitioners have sought quashing of the proceedings of Criminal Complaint Case No. 1682 of 2010, State vs. Sunil Kumar and others relating to offences punishable under sections 498A, 323, 504 and 506 I.P.C., and one punishable under section ¾ of Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961. (3) Perusal of the First Information Report discloses that there are serious allegations against the petitioners made by the complainant on behalf of the petitioners that the petitioners are innocent. It is settled principle of law that this court can not examine the factual disputes in its jurisdiction under section 482 of Cr.P.C., on the basis of half baked evidence. It is for the trial to see after recording evidence whether the allegations made against the petitioners are true or false. (4) For the reasons as discussed above this court is not inclined to interfere with the trial of the case. Therefore, the petition under section 482 of Cr.P.C is dismissed without expressing any opinion as to final merits of the case with the observation that if the petitioners namely Smt Sakuntla Devi, Naresh 3 Kumar and Hari Om surrender before the court concerned, their bail application shall be heard and disposed of without unreasonable delay. (Urgency Application No. 117 of 2011 also stands disposed of). (Prafulla C. Pant, J.) Dt.15.02.2011 N.P
