O R D E R

The present petition has been filed under Section 482 of Criminal Procedure Code to quash all further proceedings in CC.No.35 of 2020 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate Court, Alangudi, Pudukkottai District.

2. The main contention of Mr.D.Rameshkumar, learned counsel for the petitioner is that a false complaint was given by the wife of the first petitioner which culminated into registration of First Information Report in Crime No.5 of 2019 and filing of final report in CC.No.35 of 2020 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate, Alangudi. His further contention is that all the allegations found in the final report are imaginary and that no case is made out against the present petitioner. It is also his contention that the said complaint was made as a sequel to the divorce petition in IDOP.No.84 of 2020 filed by the petitioners.

3. Mr.A.Robinson, learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) accepts notice for the first respondent.

4. A perusal of 161 (3) Criminal Procedure Code Statement of the Assistant Professor, Government Medical College, Thanjavur shows https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 1/2

Crl.OP(MD).No.249 of 2021 that on 05.03.2019 at about 09.00 pm, the defacto complainant was allegedly assaulted by her husband. However, the learned counsel for the petitioner would contend that the defacto complainant had gone to the Hospital only on 12.03.2019 though she alleged that she was assaulted by her husband on 05.03.2019. The delay in getting treated for the injuries cannot be a ground to hold that the entire allegations of the defacto complainant are false. The Inspector of Police, All Women Police Station, Alangudi after investigation laid a charge sheet in CC.No.35 of 2020 before the learned Judicial Magistrate, Alangudi, Pudukkottai District and at this stage, I do not see any reason to quash the CC.No.35 of 2020.

5. In the facts and circumstances, this petition is dismissed. Consequently, the connected Miscellaneous Petitions are also dismissed.
