Hon'ble Rajeev Singh,J.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.G.A. for the State through video conferencing.
The F.I.R. impugned herein is registered as case crime no.116 of 2021, under Sections 60 of Excise Act and Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 I.P.C., Police Station Hargaon, District Sitapur.
From a plain reading of the F.I.R., it appears that a cognizable offence, prima facie, is made out against the petitioner. It is well settled that once the F.I.R. discloses commission of cognizable offence, interference under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is impermissible in view of the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of State of Harayana and others versus Bhajan Lal and other, AIR 1992 SC 604; State of Bihar and another versus Md. Khalique and another, 2002(1) SCC 652 and Girish Kumar Suneja versus Central Bureau of Investigation(2017) 14 SCC 809.
Leaving it open to the petitioner to avail the statutory remedy open to him under law, the petition is dismissed.
