Heard Sri Rizwan Ullah Siddiqui, learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri Gaurav Pratap Singh, learned State Law Officer for the State-respondent and perused the record. 2. The petitioner, by means of this writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, has invoked the inherent jurisdiction of this Court with prayer to quash the impugned First Information Report dated 24.03.2025, registered as Case Crime No.0051 of 2025, under Section 5/8 of The Uttar Pradesh Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955 and section 4/5 of Arms Act, 1959, Police Station Gagalhedi, District Saharanpur. Further prayer has been made not to arrest the petitioners in the aforesaid case. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the impugned FIR has been lodged on false/vexatious/mischievous allegations and no offences are made out against the petitioner. 4. Learned AGA for the State-respondents opposed the prayer for quashing of the FIR and states that the petitioner is a habitual offender. Previously he is also implicated in two other cow slaughter matters. Even the Gangster Act has also been invoked against the petitioner in the year 2019 and he is having long criminal antecedents of 8 cases. The FIR discloses cognizable offence. 5. The correctness of the allegations would have to be tested on the basis of the materials collected during the course of investigation and therefore, in view of the law laid down by Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of State of Haryana and others vs. Bhajan Lal and others, 1992 Supp. (1) SCC 335 and M/s Neeharika Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. vs. State of Maharashtra, AIR 2021 SC 1918 and in Special Leave to Appeal (Crl.)

No. 10913 of 2023 (Directorate of Enforcement vs. Niraj Tyagi & ors.), no case has been made out for interference with the impugned first information report. 6. 6. The writ petition is disposed of leaving it open for the petitioner to apply before the competent court for bail/ anticipatory bail in accordance with law. 7. It is made clear that we have not adjudicated the contentions raised by learned counsel for the petitioner and the same are left open for the petitioner to raise at an appropriate stage in an appropriate proceeding, in accordance with law.
