O R D E R

The present criminal original petition has been filed to call for the records relating to the FIR in Crime No.12 of 2015 on the file of the District Crime Branch, Dharmapuri District and quash the same.

2. Based on the complaint lodged by one Loganathan, a case has been registered against the petitioners in Crime No.12 of 2015 for the alleged offences punishable under Sections 465, 468, 471 and 420 IPC. To quash the same, the present criminal original petition has https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

been filed.

3. However, I am of the considered opinion that the scope of quashing the first information report is very limited, since the investigation is not yet completed. Hence, I am of the opinion that the present OP is a pre-mature one. However, the petitioner is at liberty to approach this Court after filing final report by the respondent police.

4. In fine, the criminal original petition is dismissed. However, the first respondent is directed to expedite the investigation and file final report in this case as early as possible. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. vsm Sd/- Assistant Registrar (Judicial) /True Copy/ Sub Assistant Registrar To
