The contentions in the quash petition are that the dispute is purely of civil in nature and there are no specific allegation as to alleged trespass with time and date and there is nothing to say in the absence of trespass and mischief in the private property of the de facto complainant attracting of any offence under Section 427 IPC, leave about no any wrongful restraint to attract under

Dr.SSRB, J Crl.P.No.7305 of 2018 Section 341 IPC. The same is the sum and substance with the contentions that even earlier for the acts of respondent No.2/de facto complainant, the petitioner reported to the police, who registered Crime No.73 of 2009, and after investigation filed the final report of civil nature and once that is civil nature in relation to the same property equally applies to the case on hand for the police to refer, however, filed charge sheet with no basis by simply examining the de facto complainant (LW.1) and another witness (LW.2) among six witnesses cited in the charge sheet, including LWs.3 and 4 are panchas to the so-called scene of offence and LW.5 is the Sub-Inspector of police, who issued F.I.R. and LW.6 is the Sub-Inspector of Police, who filed charge sheet, with those two statements and the so-called scene observation panchanama by making no effort to investigate properly.

4.

A perusal of the two statements of the two witnesses, LW.1/de facto complainant in tune to the F.I.R. and LW.2 is that on 12.08.2016 they went to the field and found the house constructed by the accused which is part of 25 feet road place, which is the alleged trespass. Even from perusal of the police final report, there is no effort made to find out the so-called 25 feet road really in existence and no document of the de facto

Dr.SSRB, J Crl.P.No.7305 of 2018 complainant referred as to existence of any such way to his property and there is no even any survey or demarcation, which is the prerequisite, that too when earlier Crime No.73 of 2009 on the report of the petitioner registered and referred as civil nature there is nothing to say any alleged trespass specifically into the specific private property of the de facto complainant to file the police final report and to take cognizance, in the absence of trespass there is no offence of wrongful restraint or mischief. 5.
