IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.27464 of 2008 MUKESH D.AMBANI S/O LATE SHRI DHIRUBHAI H. AMBANI, HAVING ADDRESS: MAKER CHAMBERS IV, THIRD FLOOR, 222- NARIMAN POINT, MUMBAI: 400 021 ………….Petitioner Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. DEEPAK KUMAR S/O LATE DHANUSDHARI PRASAD, PRESENTLY RESIDING AT C/O OM PRAKASH KESHRI, ANAND BAZAR, DANAPUR CANTT, PO AND P.S.- DANAPUR CANTT …………..Opposite Parties ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Manoj Kumar Ambastha-1, Adv. For the State : Ms. Shaheen Begum, APP For the O.P. No.2 : Mr. Vikash Kumar, Adv. ----------- 3. 19.05.2011 Heard the parties. The petitioner has sought quashing of the entire proceedings including the order dated 2.5.2008 passed by Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Patna by which he has taken cognizance under Section 403 I.P.C. in complaint Case No. 1068 (C)/2007. The case of the complainant is that he had purchased 100 share of the company where the petitioner was Chairman and the Managing Director, which was lost some time in year 1998 for which he had given a Sanha before Sindri Police Station. After original shares were lost the complainant allegedly kept demanding the duplicate shares but the same was not disbursed at the end of 2 the company and, therefore, the present complaint was instituted. On going through the complaint petition, in my opinion no offence whatsoever is made out against any of the accused persons much less under Section 403 I.P.C. The complainant may have a valid grievance with regard to non-issuance of his duplicate shares but it certainly would not make out a cause for institution of a criminal case. In the result, application is allowed and the entire proceedings including the order dated 2.5.2008 passed by Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Patna in complaint Case No. 1068 (C)/2007 is hereby quashed.
