At the outset, it is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that the occurrence is said to have taken place on 15.09.2024, whereas the complaint has been lodged on 03.05.2025, after an abnormal and inordinate delay of about eight months without assigning any plausible and cogent reason for the said delay, which creates serious doubt about the prosecution case. There is case and counter case between the parties and the case of the petitioners’ side was rather lodged on 15.09.2024. It is further submitted that there is a land dispute between the parties and the title suit is also pending for adjudication.
