CORAM : R.M. SAVANT AND PRAKASH D. NAIK, JJ.

DATED :

JUNE 26, 2018.

P.C. :

By this petition, the writ jurisdiction of this Court is invoked for quashing of the FIR in C.R.No.464 of 2016 dated 25th June, 2016, registered with the Dindoshi Police Station, Mumbai, for the offences punishable under Sections 498-A, 406, 504 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code. We are informed by the learned APP Mrs.Shinde that the charge-sheet has been filed on 3rd March, 2018, which fact is not disputed by the learned counsel for the petitioner.

In view thereof, we do not find this is a fit case to exercise our writ jurisdiction at this stage. However, it would be

If any application for discharge is filed by the petitioner, needless to say that the same would be tried on its own merits and in accordance with law. With the observations as aforesaid, the Writ Petition is disposed of. (PRAKASH D. NAIK, J.) (R.M. SAVANT, J.)
