Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the complaint is lodged without any valid grounds and that the same is lodged only to harass the petitioner and as such, he prays this Court to quash the same. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings at the threshold. However, taking into consideration the fact that the petitioner being a lady, the second respondent is directed to complete the investigation without arresting the petitioner and file final report, if any, in accordance with law. The petitioner is directed to appear before the second respondent and execute a personal bond for a sum of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only) with one surety for the likesum for her future appearance for the purpose of investigation. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any shall also stand disposed of. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 15.11.2016 pln
