Hon'ble Rajesh Chandra,J.
We have heard learned counsel for the petitioners, learned AGA and have perused the impugned F.I.R.
The petitioners through the present writ petition have invoked the extraordinary jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India praying for certiorari quashing the impugned F.I.R. dated 23.05.2010 relating to crime no. 290 of 2010, under Sections 420, 406, 504, 506 I.P.C, Police Station-Civil Lines, District Aligarh. The ancillary prayer is to issue a writ of mandamus commanding the respondents not to arrest the petitioners in the aforesaid crime number pendentilite the writ petition.
A perusal of the F.I.R. discloses commission of cognizable offence. Hence, the question of quashing the F.I.R. does not arise. The writ petition in this regard is dismissed. However, the petitioners shall not be arrested by the investigating officer till credible evidence is collected.
