Heard Ms. Surbhi holding brief of Sri Irshad Ahmad, learned counsel for the applicant and Sri M.P.S. Chauhan, learned AGA for the State.
This is an application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the charge sheet dated 08.12.2017 and the proceedings of S.T. No. 13 of 2018 (State vs. Dilshad and others), arising out of F.I.R. No. 531 of 2017, under Sections 413, 414, 420, 468 IPC, P.S. Kotwali, District Rampur pending before the Additional Sessions Judge/F.T.C. IInd, Rampur.
On perusal of the impugned charge sheet and the materials in support of the same, this Court does not find it to be a case which can be determined or gone into in an application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. This Court cannot hold a parallel trial in an application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. No such ground appears to be available to the applicant, on the basis of which the impugned charge sheet can be quashed going by the settled law in R.P. Kapur Vs. State of Punjab, A.I.R. 1960 S.C. 866, State of Haryana Vs. Bhajan Lal, 1992 SCC (Cr.) 426, State of Bihar Vs. P.P.Sharma, 1992 SCC (Cr.) 192 and Zandu Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. Vs. Mohd. Saraful Haq and another (Para-10) 2005 SCC (Cr.) 283.
Accordingly, the prayer for quashing the charge sheet and the proceedings is refused.
However, considering the facts and circumstances of the case, it is provided that if the applicant appears and surrenders before the court below within 45 days from today and applies for bail, his prayer for bail shall be considered and decided in view of the settled law laid by this Court in the case of Amrawati and another Vs. State of U.P. reported in 2004 (57) ALR 290 as well as judgement passed by Hon'ble Apex Court reported in 2009 (3) ADJ 322 (SC) Lal Kamlendra Pratap Singh Vs. State of U.P.
For a period of 45 days from today or till the applicant surrenders whichever is earlier, no coercive action shall be taken against the applicant. However, in case, the applicant does not appear before the court below within the aforesaid period, coercive action shall be taken against him.
With the aforesaid directions, the application is finally disposed of. Order Date :- 25.9.2018 Imroz
