2025:UHC:716 SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS WPCRL No.1150 of 2021 Hon’ble Manoj Kumar Tiwari, J. There is no representation for the petitioners. Mr. K.S. Bora, Deputy Advocate General and Mr. J.P. Kandpal, Brief Holder for the State of Uttarakhand. 2. Petitioners have sought quashing of F.I.R. No.583 of 2018, for offences punishable under Sections 147, 148, 149, 323, 302, 504, 506 & 307 I.P.C. and Section 1(j) of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, registered at Police Station Kotwali Manglore, District Haridwar. 3. Learned State Counsel submits that upon investigation, Investigating Officer has filed charge-sheet against petitioners. He thus, submits that the writ petition has become infructuous. 4. The writ petition would not become infructuous by filing of charge-sheet and F.I.R. can be quashed, if ingredients of the offence are not made out. 5. The impugned F.I.R. is on record as Annexure No.5 to the writ petition. The allegations against the petitioners are specific and the ingredients of the offences are made out. Whether the allegations made in the F.I.R. are correct or not, cannot be examined at this stage. It is matter of trial. 6. In view of parameters laid down by 2025:UHC:716 Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of M/s Neeharika Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. Vs. State of Maharashtra & others, reported in AIR 2021 SC 1918, this Court does not find any reason to interfere with the impugned F.I.R. 7. Accordingly, the writ petition fails and is dismissed.
