// 1 // IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR ORDER IN S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.10020/2008 Smt. Sushila Bai Widow of late Shri Kripa Ram Jaiswal and Another Versus State of Rajasthan and Others Date of Order ::: 16.09.2008 Present Hon'ble Mr. Justice Narendra Kumar Jain Shri Virendra Dave, Counsel for petitioners #### By the Court:- Heard learned counsel for the petitioners. The petitioners have preferred this writ petition with a prayer to quash FIR No.230/08 dated 30th August, 2008 registered at Police Station Jhalrapatan, District Jhalawar. I have considered the submissions of the learned counsel for the petitioners in the light of allegations mentioned in the FIR. The Hon'ble Supreme Court in Union of India v. B.R. Bajaj – AIR 1994 SC 1256, held that at the stage of FIR the Courts should refrain from interfering when the FIR discloses the commission of cognizable offence and statutory power of police to investigate cannot be interfered with in exercise of the inherent // 2 // power of the court. Whatever defence is available to the petitioner, he should explain the same to the Investigating Agency and extend cooperation to the Investigating Officer during investigation of the case. In view of the above, I do not find any merit in this writ petition and the same is accordingly dismissed in limine. (Narendra Kumar Jain) J. //Jaiman//
