THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO
ORDER:
The writ petition is filed by the petitioner seeking a writ of mandamus declaring the action of the second respondent in registering the complaint being crime No.370 of 2016 for the offences under Section 498-A and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act as illegal and arbitrary, and consequently to quash the same.
Heard and perused the material.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present crime and that he has not committed any of the offences as alleged against him. He further submits that the second respondent has lodged the complaint with all false allegations. Hence, he prays this Court to quash the same.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioner at the threshold. However, taking into consideration the fact that the case is arising out of family disputes, the second respondent is directed to complete the investigation without arresting the petitioner and file final report, if any, in accordance with law. The petitioner is directed to appear before the second respondent and execute a personal bond for a sum of Rs.5,000/- (Rupees five thousand only) with one surety for the likesum for his future appearance as and when required for the purpose of investigation.
The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any shall also stand disposed of.
