JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL JUDGMENT Date: 11-02-2015 In the present application filed under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner has prayed for quashing of the first information report of Pipra Kothi P.S. Case No. 72 of 2013 registered for the offence under Sections 406, 420, 506, 504 and 323 of the Indian Penal Code.

At the outset, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent no. 2 has submitted that during pendency of the

Patna High Court Cr. WJC No.512 of 2014 dt.11-02-2015 2 / 2 case, the police have already submitted charge sheet in the Court pursuant to which the learned Magistrate has taken cognizance of the offence on 3.1.2015.

The said contention of learned counsel for the respondent no. 2 is not disputed by learned counsel for the petitioner.

In view of the subsequent developments in the case, I am not inclined to entertain the present application in writ jurisdiction.

Accordingly, the application is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to challenge the order taking cognizance by filing an appropriate application under Sections 482 and 483 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before this Court.
