Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.29385 of 2011 dt.16-05-2017
3. At the very outset learned Senior Counsel Mr. Ashok Kumar Singh invites attention to impugned order dated 29.01.2010 by which cognizance has been taken only against co-accused Atul Kumar Singh and not against the petitioners. The said order of cognizance was passed on the basis of interim charge sheet, but final investigation was not yet complete at the relevant time. Learned Senior Counsel for the petitioners has not been able to point out that any final police report has since been submitted.
4. In the above view of the matter, this Court finds the present petition at the instance of the petitioners premature. The same is accordingly dismissed with liberty to the petitioners to approach once again, if the situation so warrants in future.
5. Let the lower Court records be returned to the Court below forthwith.
