Hon’ble Ram Krishna Gautam,J.

The applicants, Smt. Vismillah, Munna Mazeed @ Mazid Bakhsh and Najir Ali, by means of this application, under Section 482 Cr.P.C., have invoked inherent jurisdiction of this Court, with a prayer to quash the chargesheet No.1/18, dated 28.9.2018, in Case Crime No.242/2018, under Sections 498A, 323 and 506 of I.P.C., read with Section 3/4 of Dowry Prohibition Act, Police Station-Jalaun, District- Jalaun, pending in the court of Judicial Magistrate, Jalaun.

The contention of learned counsel for the applicants is that no offence against the applicants is disclosed and the present prosecution has been instituted with malafide intention for the purposes of harassment. Learned counsel has pointed out towards certain documents and statements in support of his contention.

Learned A.G.A. has opposed the application by contending that all the submissions made at the bar relate to the disputed questions of fact, which cannot be adjudicated upon by this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C.

Considered the rival submissions made by the parties.

The submissions made by learned counsel for the applicants call for adjudication on pure questions of fact, which may be adequately adjudicated upon only by the trial court and while doing so even the submissions made on points of law can also be more appropriately gone into by the trial court in this case. Veracity of the statements are material evidence of fact and is not to be ascertained in this proceeding u/s 482 Cr.P.C. of this Court because the same is within the jurisdiction of Trial Court and is a point of fact to be seen in the trial. In view of law propounded by Hon’ble Apex Court in State of Andhra Pradesh v. Gaurishetty Mahesh, JT 2010 (6) SC 588: (2010) 6 SCALE 767: 2010 Cr. LJ 3844, Hamida v.

The prayer for quashing proceeding of the aforesaid criminal case is refused.
