(oral) Heard learned counsel for the applicants, learned Assistant Government Advocate for the State of Uttarakhand as well as learned counsel for respondent no. 3. This Criminal Misc. Application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been filed by the applicants challenging the summoning order dated 12.8.2005 passed by the First A.C.J. (Jr. Div.), Roorkee, District Haridwar in Complaint Case No. 517 of 2005 pending before the First A.C.J. (Jr. Div.), Roorkee, District Haridwar under Sections 498 A/504/506 I.P.C. Brief facts of the case are that a complaint has been filed against the applicants who are husband, father-in-law and mother in law of the wife/complainant who is presently impleaded as respondent no. 2. In the complaint, the complainant has alleged that applicant no. 1 and respondent no. 2 married as per Hindu Rites and Ceremonies on 17.4.2005. Thereafter there was harassment regarding dowry and “marpeet”, etc. Consequently the complainant returned to her parent’s house at “Imli Khera”, Haridwar and lodged a complaint before the Court of Judicial Magistrate, Roorkee. On these set of facts, the learned court below proceeded on the complaint and examined the witnesses under Section 200 and 202 Cr.P.C. and came to the conclusion that a case is made out against the applicants under Section 498A/504/506 I.P.C. and summons were issued against them. This Court finds no grounds for interfering with the present matter as prima facie the Court at Haridwar had the jurisdiction in the matter as per the averments made in the complaint. This is open for the applicants 2 to rebut the allegations and raise the point of jurisdiction before the court below. There being no infirmity with the impugned summoning order dated 12.8.2005, no interference is called for from this Court under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. The present C-482 application is therefore absolutely without merit and is liable to be dismissed and is hereby dismissed. Interim order, if any, is also vacated. No order as to costs. Registry is directed to send a copy of this order to the court concerned for necessary compliance. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 19.8.2010 Avneet
