Hon'ble Ajai Kumar Srivastava-I,J.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned A.G.A. for the State through video conferencing.
The F.I.R. impugned herein is registered as Case Crime No. 104 of 2021, under Section 452, 323, 504, 376D and 506 I.P.C., police station Itiyathok, district Gonda.
From a plain reading of the F.I.R., it appears that a cognizable offence, prima facie, is made out against the petitioners. 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.
The writ petition is dismissed without prejudice to the remedy of anticipatory bail under Section 438 Cr.P.C. available to the petitioners.
