ORDER
This Criminal Original Petition has been filed under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 to call for the records in P.R.C.No.132 of 2009 on the file of the XVIII Metropolitan Magistrate, Saidapet, Chennai and quash the same.
2. No representation for the petitioner. Heard the learned counsel for the respondent.
3. The petitioner is arrayed as A13 in the case. With respect to the same occurrence, one C.Baskaran, lodged the complaint and the same was registered in Cr.No.1977 of 2008 on the file of E3 Teynampet Police Station for the offence under Sections 147, 148, 341, 324 and 427 IPC; one Mrs.Savithiri, wife of the above said Baskaran filed a private compliant before the XVIII Metropolitan Magistrate, Saidapet, Chennai, and the same was taken on file after enquiry as P.R.C.No.132 of 2009.
4. Since both the complaints are with respect to the same occurrence, as per Section 210 Cr.P.C, the trial Court has to try both the cases together, as if both the cases were instituted on a police report. Quashing of one case independent of the other case will not arise. I do not see any merit in the petition and accordingly, the same is liable to be dismissed.
