WPCRL No.208 of 2025 Hon’ble Pankaj Purohit, J.
Mr. Devansh Kaushik, learned counsel i/b Mr. Parikshit Saini, learned counsel for the petitioner.
2. Mr. Bhaskar Ch. Joshi, learned AGA with Mr. Vipul Painuly, learned B.H. for the State.
3. Petitioners have challenged the FIR of Crime No.11 of 2025 u/s 420, 120-B, 504 and 506 IPC registered against them at P.S. Patel Nagar, District Dehradun.
4.
Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that this is a matter of money lending where the assurance was given by the petitioners to double the money invested within a certain period of time; respondent no.3 has lodged false FIR against petitioners as she herself is a cashier-cum-clerk in Bank of Baroda; no detail of any payment has been mentioned by respondent no.3 in the FIR.
5. On the other hand, learned State Counsel opposed the petition arguing that it is a matter relating to money lending.
6. On a perusal of the impugned FIR, it appears that prima facie a case is made out against the petitioners; they have specifically been named in the FIR; the allegation is that a conspiracy was hatched against the respondent no.3/informant and she was even abused and threatened to her life.
7. Having regard to the facts of the case, it is not a fit case for quashing the impugned FIR. The petition lacks merit and the same is dismissed in limine.
