Petitioner Versus MS.DEEP ANMOL KAUR AND ANOTHER ..... Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE VIRINDER AGGARWAL Present : Mr. Yavneet Dhakla, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. J.S. Rattu, DAG, Punjab. **** VIRINDER AGGARWAL , J. (Oral) 1. The present petition has been filed under Section 447 read with Section 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (corresponding to Sections 407 and 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973), seeking transfer of Criminal Complaint No. NACT- 833-2025 (CNR No. PBSA03-007766-2025), titled "Deep Anmol Kaur vs. Manish Kumar", instituted on 13.08.2025 and presently pending before the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali), Punjab, to the Court of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate or any other competent Criminal Court at Panchkula, Haryana. 2. Notice of motion. 3. Mr. J.S. Rattu, learned Deputy Advocate General, Punjab, accepts notice on behalf of respondent No.2. 4. Heard. SAURAV PATHANIA 2026.07.10 16:49 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document finds no merit in the present petition. The rent proceedings and the criminal complaint are distinct and independent in nature, arising out of separate causes of action and requiring adjudication on the basis of different sets of facts and evidence. Furthermore, the rent proceedings and the complaint case have not been instituted by the same party. Mere pendency of the rent proceedings at Panchkula does not constitute a valid or sufficient ground for transfer of the criminal complaint pending before the competent Court at S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali). 6. Accordingly, the present petition is dismissed. 7. Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, are also disposed of. ( VIRINDER AGGARWAL) JUDGE 10.07.2026 S.
