ORAL JUDGMENT
Date : 07-01-2020
Heard learned counsel for the parties.
This petition is for quashment of FIR of Chapra Town
P.S. Case No. 06 of 2019 registered under Sections 498A, 420,
406, 323, 504 and 506/34 of the Indian Penal Code on the written
complaint of opposite party no. 2.
According to FIR, opposite party no. 2 married with the
petitioner on 20.04.2001. After sometimes, there was demand of a
Scorpio Vehicle and for non-fulfillment of demand, opposite party
no. 2 was being tortured even by commission of assault. Further
allegation is that the petitioner had suppressed to opposite party
no. 2 at the time of marriage that first wife of the petitioner is

2/2
already dead and she died leaving behind two daughters and a son.
Further allegation is that the petitioner is in relationship of
different girls and always assaults to opposite party no. 2 when
opposite party no. 2 protested the act of the petitioner. The FIR
further discloses other cases lodged by opposite party no. 2 against
the petitioner under the Domestic Violence Act and for
maintenance.
In my view, the FIR discloses commission of cognizable
offence, hence, it cannot be quashed on the ground that allegation
is not believable and acceptable. The correctness of the allegation
would be subject matter of the investigation. Hence, I am not
inclined to interfere with the matter in exercise of power under
Section 482 Cr.P.C.
Accordingly, this application stands dismissed.
