1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State perused the record.
2. This application has been filed by the applicant to quash the impugned charge sheet dated 12.06.2024 as well as cognizance
order dated 20.05.2024 issued against the applicant arising out of case crime no.167 of 2024 under sections 3/5/8 U.P. (Prevention) of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955 (State versus Arsalan & others) registered at Police station Shahganj District Jaunpur pending in the court of A.C.J.M., Court No.15, Jaunpur during pendency of the present application.
3. Learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the proceeding initiated against the applicant is illegal and against the material available on record; the material of investigation does not disclose commission of any alleged offences against the applicant and as such the proceedings initiated against the applicant including the impugned charge-sheet and cognizance/summoning order are liable to be quashed by this court.
4. Per contra, learned AGA for the State vehemently opposed the prayer as made in the application and rebutted the stand taken up by learned counsel for applicant by way of submitting that the averments whatsoever has been raised by learned counsel for applicant is subject matter of trial and submitted that after considering the material available on record, charge-sheet has been submitted against the applicant upon which learned court concerned has rightly taken cognizance and summoned the applicant.
5. After hearing rival submissions extended by learned counsel for the parties and by bare perusal of record, there appears to be no illegality and impropriety in the impugned charge-sheet and cognizance/summoning order and as such learned court concerned has rightly proceeded against the applicant.
6. In view thereof, the instant application under Section 482 Cr.P.C lacks merit and is hereby disposed of.
7. However, the applicant will be at liberty to avail all the other legal remedies available at law.
