....Respondents BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA

Present:

Mr. Deepak Aggarwal, Advocate for the petitioner. RAJAN GUPTA J.

Petitioner has sought quashing of FIR No. 116 dated 19.04.2013 registered against him under sections 406, 420 IPC at police station Pehowa, District Kurukshetra.

Learned counsel for the petitioner has emphatically argued that no role has been attributed to the petitioner in the commission of crime. His name has been merely added in the challan. Thus, FIR deserves to be quashed.

I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner. FIR was lodged by complainant alleging that accused gave assurance that their wards would be employed in cruise ship operating in Australia with a salary of `70,000/- per month on payment of `27.00 lacs to them. Various amounts were remitted to the accused thereafter. Investigation ensued. After completion thereof, final report under section 173 Cr.P.C. was submitted stating that there was enough material available against Sanjiv Kumar, Tabrej Alam and Jawed Faisal (petitioner herein). Only plea of the petitioner is that there is no evidence to connect the AJAY KUMAR 2015.03.23 16:12 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document

CRM M-42147 of 2014 petitioner with the crime. In my considered view, this assertion alone cannot prove that petitioner is not guilty. It can only be decided after some evidence is lead before the trial court. There is, thus, no ground to interfere in inherent jurisdiction. Dismissed.
