ORDER:
This writ petition under Article 226 of Constitution of India is filed seeking to quash the proceedings in Crime No.687 of 2016 on the file of 3[rd] respondent.
The case of the petitioners is that on the complaint given by 4[th]respondent, the 3[rd] respondent registered a case against the petitioners in Crime No.687 of 2016 for the offences punishable under Sections 447, 427, 323, 506(ii), 509 r/w 34 IPC. Now, it is the grievance of the petitioners that they are implicated falsely due to the rivalry with the 4[th]respondent regarding civil disputes and that they have not committed the offence as alleged in the complaint.
The learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home submitted that since a complaint is lodged by the 4[th] respondent, the 3[rd] respondent registered the present F.I.R. in accordance with law.
Now, the learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are ready to cooperate for the investigation, but, however, they are apprehending arrest and harassment in the hands of 3[rd]respondent-police.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and since all the offences levelled against the petitioners are punishable with imprisonment less than five years, the 3[rd] respondent is directed to complete the investigation in Crime No.687 of 2016 without arresting the petitioners and file a final report, if any, in accordance with law. The petitioners are directed to appear before the 3[rd] respondent-police as and when required during the course of investigation.
Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
Pending Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, shall stand closed.
