Mr.Iqbal Asif Niyazi, AC to GP-5 ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJEEV RANJAN PRASAD ORAL ORDER 26-08-2022 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. Iqbal Asif Niyazi, learned AC to GP-5 for the State. Petitioner in the present case is seeking quashing of the First Information Report being Raiyam P.S. Case No.8 of 2017 registered for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 324, 307, 354, 379, 506 and 447 of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 3(i)(4)(s) of SC/ST (POA) Act.
In course of hearing of the writ application and on perusal of the materials available on the record it transpired that the investigation in this case is over long back. A final form
Patna High Court CR. WJC No.796 of 2022(3) dt.26-08-2022 2/2 bearing no.21 of 2018 dated 31.05.2018 was submitted in the learned court below showing the petitioner not sent up for trial. It further appears from paragraph '25' of the writ application that after submission of final form showing the petitioner not sent up for trial the learned Magistrate differed with the police report and while taking cognizance of the offences under Sections 148, 149, 447, 448, 341, 323, 354B, 386, 427, 504 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3(1)(r)(s) under SC/ST Act directed issuance of summons to the petitioner also. Having said so the order taking cognizance and issuance of summons to the petitioner is not under challenge in the writ application. There is no foundation laid down for challenge to the order issuing summons to the petitioner.
In these circumstances, in the opinion of this Court, the writ application cannot proceed. It is being disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to seek his remedy against the order taking cognizance and issuance of summons against the petitioner, if so advised, in a duly constituted application in accordance with law. Liberty is there for the same.
