Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that a criminal Court cannot look into the allegations levelled in the FIR as, on the face of it, they come across as being civil in nature. 3.

On a pointed query put to the learned counsel as to what is the stage of trial, he has submitted that the matter is still pending investigation.
