IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.46689 of 2007 CHANDRA BHUSHAN SINGH @ BHUSHAN SINGH son of late Jang Bahadur Singh, resident of village-Bhagwanpur, P.S.-Barh, Dist.-Patna. Versus 1.STATE OF BIHAR 2. The Bihar State Electricity Board, through the Chairman, Bidyut Bhawan, Patna (Bihar) ----------- 4. 12.3.2010. This petition has been filed for quashing the first information report of Barh P.S. Case No.426 of 2006 registered for the offences under section 379 of the Indian Penal Code and sections 39 and 44 of the Electricity Act, 2003. Perusal of the first information report indicates that cognizance offence has been committed by the accused persons. I do not find any merit in this case. There is nothing on the record to suggest that first information report does not contain any cognizable offence or it was instituted maliciously. I do not find anything on record warranting this court to exercise inherent power under section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and, as such, the petition stands dismissed. Md.S. ( Rakesh Kumar, J.)
