ORAL ORDER

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, the learned Special SPP for respondent No.1/State and the learned counsel for respondent No.2/complainant.

2. This petition is filed for quashing of the proceedings in Special Case No.114/2019, for the offences punishable under Sections 417, 418, 420 read with Section 34 of IPC.

HC-KAR

3. The learned counsel for respondent No.2 would submit that already the Trial Court has recorded the evidence of the witnesses and only yet to give a finding on the evidence available on record.

4. When such being the case, the question of continuing these proceedings does not arise and the very request of the learned counsel for respondent No.2 that he would get the instructions also does not arise when the trial has already been commenced and completed. Hence, the petition is dismissed in view of already evidence is recorded.
