% 31.01.2018 By this petition the petitioner seeks quashing of FIR No.235/2017 under Sections 224/225/34 IPC registered at PS Farsh Bazar. The genesis of the above noted FIR is a complaint by the learned Metropolitan Magistrate, Karkardooma Courts who stated that the petitioner is an accused in an ongoing investigation in case FIR No.312/2016 under Section 420/34 IPC. Despite efforts the petitioner could not be traced and was not joining the investigations. Since the petitioner was appearing in another FIR No.46/2016 under Section 365 IPC registered at PS Krishna Nagar for recording of her statement under Section 164 Cr.P.C., the Investigating Officer of the case sought permission to arrest the petitioner which was granted. When the Investigating Officer was preparing the arrest memo of W.P.(CRL) 2006/2017

the petitioner to formally arrest her, she fled away. Considering the nature of allegations and the conduct of the petitioner, no case is made out for quashing of the FIR and the proceedings therefrom.

The petition and the application are dismissed. MUKTA GUPTA, J.
