ORAL ORDER

This petition is filed to quash the entire proceedings in C.C.No.666/2023 for the offences punishable under Sections 457, 380, 201, 109, 212 read with Section 34 of IPC.

2. Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and also the learned High Court Government Pleader appearing for respondent No.1.

3. This Court already quashed the proceedings against accused Nos.3 and 4 in Crl.P.Nos.8971/2025 and 4248/2020 respectively. The present petitioner is accused No.1. This

HC-KAR

petitioner is also implicated in the case based on the co- accused statement i.e., accused No.2 with regard to the incident of committing the offences under Sections 457 and 380 of IPC. There is no any recovery at the instance of this petitioner except the statement of co-accused and mahazar witness statement with regard to the seizure of motorcycle and Bolero pickup vehicle in which they came and trespassed the house of the complainant and having provided the shelter to the accused persons. Against those persons who gave the shelter to the accused also, there is no any incriminating materials collected by the IO during the investigation. The counsel appearing for the State would submit that only bike was seized and witnesses who have been given the statement is with regard to the seizure of the motorcycle and the same is also based on voluntary statement of accused persons. There is no any incriminating material against this petitioner as there is no any recovery in respect of this incident is concerned. When this court already extended the benefit in favour of accused Nos.3 and 4 on the ground that there is no any recovery and no any incriminating materials, the question of continuing the

HC-KAR

proceedings against this petitioner also does not arise since this petitioner is also standing on the same footing and based on statement made by the co-accused, this petitioner is also implicated in the case. Hence, the petitioner has made out the grounds to quash the proceedings.

4. In view of the discussions made above, I pass the following:

ORDER

The petition is allowed. The proceedings against this petitioner in C.C.No.666/2023 is quashed.
