It is the case of the prosecution that on 23.03.2024, the petitioners went to the defacto complainant's house and used filthy language to vacate his house and during the wordy quarrel, the petitioners hit the defacto complainant using metal rod, hence, FIR was registered in FIR.No.105 of 2024 and the same resulted in filing of chargesheet in C.C.No.176 of 2025 on the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate-III, Vellore. 3. It is the contention of the revision petitioners that the petitioners have given a counter case in Cr.No.106 of 2024, however, till date, final report is not filed. Hence, seeks for quashment of the chargesheet. 4. The learned Government Advocate (Crl.Side) on instructions, submitted that final report will be filed in Cr.No.106 of 2024, the delay is only due to delay in securing the wound certificate. 5.

The very FIR indicate there are serious bodily injuries caused to the defacto complainant and Page 2 / 4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Crl.O.P.No.23304 of 2025 merely, because there is a delay in filing chargesheet in other case that cannot be a ground to quash the charge-sheet. Such view of the matter, this Court is not inclined to quash the charge-sheet in C.C.No.176 of 2025. Let the respondent police file a final report in the other case and the Trial Court shall simultaneously try both the charge-sheets and dispose of the same. 6.
