1. The present petition under Section 447 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 [“BNSS”] seeks transfer of Cr. Case No. 6951/2018, arising out of FIR No. 179/2011 registered at Police Station Economic Offences Wing, and pending before the Court of CJM, South-East District, Saket Courts, New Delhi, to the Court of CJM, North District, Rohini Courts, Delhi.

2. The Petitioners state that FIR No. 179/2011 was registered at Police Station Economic Offences Wing against them and other accused persons in relation to the projects of M/s Pal Infrastructure and Developers Pvt. Ltd. During the course of investigation, complaints were also received from several other purchasers in relation to the same project, whose statements were recorded and who were subsequently cited as victims/witnesses in the chargesheet filed in 2018.

3. Subsequently, eighteen separate FIRs came to be registered at Police Station Economic Offences Wing in 2018-2019 at the instance of persons who already figured as victims/witnesses in the chargesheet filed in FIR No. 179/2011. Separate chargesheets were thereafter filed in these FIRs and the resultant eighteen criminal cases are presently pending before the Court of CJM, North District, Rohini Courts, Delhi. The Petitioners state that these cases arise out of substantially similar allegations and transactions involving the same accused company and the Petitioners herein.

4. Considering the overlap in the parties, witnesses and factual matrix of the aforesaid proceedings, the Court finds it appropriate that Cr. Case No. 6951/2018 also be placed before the same Court.

5. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the allegations or the underlying proceedings, Cr. Case No. 6951/2018 is directed to be transferred from the Court of CJM, South-East District, Saket Courts, New Delhi, to the Court of CJM, North District, Rohini Courts, Delhi, along with the entire case record.

6. Copy of this order be sent to the concerned Principal District & Sessions Judges for necessary information and compliance.

7. Accordingly, the petition is disposed of.
