The petitioner in this application under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short "Cr.P.C.") has prayed for quashing of the order of cognizance dated 17.04.2010 passed by the learned S.D.J.M., Bhadrak in G.R. Case No.1844 of 2008 taking cognizance of the offence under Section 409/34 of IPC.

3.

No one appears for the petitioner at the time of call. This case is of the year 2012 and near about one decade has already been passed from the date of filing of this case. As such, the petitioner appears to be a recalcitrant litigant and has lost interest in the present litigation. Hence, this CRLMC stands

However, liberty is given to the petitioner to raise all such contentions at the time of framing of charge, if charge has not been framed in the meanwhile.
