The relief sought in this petition is for quashing of the F.I.R. dated 30.11.2024, registered as Case Crime No. 0397 of 2024, under Sections 191(2), 191(3), 115(2), 118(1), 352, 109, 351(3) of B.N.S., 2023, Police Station Machhalisahar, District Jaunpur. Further prayer has been made not to arrest the petitioner in the aforesaid case. 3. Submissions of learned counsel for the petitioners is that both sides had suffered injuries in the present case and the informant's side has in fact assaulted the petitioners' side and the petitioners' side have also filed an application under Section 173(3) B.N.S. against the informant's side. 4. Per contra, learned A.G.A. for the State submits that as per the instructions incident had taken place and both sides have suffered injuries. We find that the ground so taken are nothing but the defence of the petitioners which cannot be considered for the purpose of the quashing of FIR and a cognizable offence is made out. That apart, perusal of the impugned first information report prima facie reveals commission of cognizable offence. 5.
