Tamil @ Tamilarasan v. The Inspector of Police

ORDER This petition has been filed seeking to quash the impugned FIR in Crime No.11 of 2022 on the file of the 1st respondent police.

2.The contention of the petitioner is that based on the complaint lodged by the 2nd respondent, the 1st respondent registered the First Information Report in Crime No.11 of 2022 for the offence punishable under Section 160 IPC against the petitioners. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the case was registered in the year 2022, so far no final report has been filed before the concerned Court.

3.The learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side) submitted that so far final report has not been filed before the concerned Court.

4.Considering the nature of offence made out against the petitioner, this Court is of the view that since even after a lapse of one year, the final report has not been filed before the Concerned Court, it is barred by limitation under Section 468 of Cr.P.C . Therefore, this Court is inclined to allow this petition.

5.This criminal original petition is allowed and the FIR in Crime No.11 of 2022 on the file of the 1st respondent police is hereby quashed. Consequently, the connected Miscellaneous Petition is closed.
