ORAL JUDGMENT
Date: 28-07-2017
This application under section 482 of the Cr.P.C. has

been filed to quash the order dated 21.07.2014 passed by learned

Judicial Magistrate, Ist Class in Ramkrishna Nagar P.S.Case No.04 of

2014 whereunder the Magistrate finding prima-facie case for the

offence under sections 341, 323, 324, 307, 498A/34 of the IPC

summoned the petitioners.

2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and APP for

the State.

3. The Opposite Party No.2 in spite of personal service

of notice did not appear to oppose the quashing application. Both the

petitioners are parents of the husband of informant Opposite Party

No.2. None of them are named in the FIR. The case has been

registered only against the husband with specific allegation that in the

night of 13.01.2014 her husband threw boiled milk on her person
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.34293 of 2014 dt.28-07-2017

causing burn injuries. The marriage of informant was performed in

the year 2002 and from the said wedlock she has three children. She

had lodged a police vide Ramkrishnanagar P.S.Case No.95 of 2010

for the offence under Sections 498A, 323/34 of the IPC. The husband

of the informant had also filed a divorce case no.287 of 2013 before

Principal Judge, Family Court, Gaya. After institution of said case, the

ifnorant had lodged the present case only against the husband with

specific allegation. It appears that the name of these petitioners

appeared in supervision of Dy.S.P. which is against the material on

record as submitted by his learned counsel. The criminal prosecution

of these two petitioners in such circumstance would amount to abuse

of the process of the Court as the main grievance of the informant is

against the husband. There is nothing against these petitioners on

record particularly the allegation of torture and assault.

4. In view of above facts the criminal prosecution of

these petitioners cannot be sustained. The order taking cognizance so

far these petitioners are concerned is quashed and this criminal

miscellaneous application is allowed.
