(POA) Act, 1989.

Heard and perused the material available on record. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and also as the offences alleged against petitioner/accused are serious in nature, which have to be investigated into by the investigating agency, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the proceedings initiated against the petitioner/accused.

However, in view of submissions of the learned counsel for petitioner that petitioner is apprehending arrest in view of the pendency of the above crime, the police concerned are directed to complete the investigation into the crime without arresting the petitioner/accused and file the final report, if any, in accordance with law. However, in the event of necessity, the police concerned are directed to issue notice to petitioner requiring him to appear before the investigating agency for the purpose of investigation and on issuance of such notice, the petitioner shall appear before the investigating agency and give an undertaking as to his future appearance as and when required by the investigating agency for the purpose of investigation.

Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Consequently, pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed. __________________ M.S.K.JAISWAL, J 26th August 2016 ajr
