The petitioners are seeking to quash the FIR and the charge sheet. But since the Trial Court has proceeded to frame - 3 - NC: 2025:KHC:2981 CRL.P No. 7144 of 2020 charges and examined the witnesses, the petitioners are not entitled for quashing the criminal proceedings. They have to seek acquittal after facing the trial. Hence, the petition is dismissed as the same has rendered infructuous. Sd/- (M G UMA) JUDGE SPV List No.: 1 Sl No.: 0
