Amit Jadaun and Another v. State of U.P. and 2 Others

Court No. - 43 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. WRIT PETITION No. - 17710 of 2023 Petitioner :- Amit Jadaun And Another Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 2 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Gauri Shanker Mishra Counsel for Respondent :- G.A. Hon'ble Anjani Kumar Mishra,J. Hon'ble Vivek Kumar Singh,J. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned A.G.A. for the State. The instant writ petition seeks quashing of the FIR dated

5.8.2023 giving rise to Case Crime No.96 of 2023, under Sections 2/3 U.P. Gangster Act, Police Station-Vijay Garh, District-Aligarh. Upon hearing learned counsel for the parties and upon a perusal of the record, we find that the submissions made on behalf of the petitioners are their defence, which cannot be looked into while dealing with a writ petition seeking quashing of a first information report. Moreover, the allegations made in the First Information Report clearly disclose commission of cognizable offences and the allegations are serious in nature. Therefore, prayer of the petitioners to quash the First Information Report is completely misconceived and is rejected. The writ petition is therefore dismissed, without prejudice to the right of the petitioners to apply for bail. Order Date :- 9.11.2023 Dev/- High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
