2026:JHHC:12004 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI Cr. M.P. No.805 of 2026 Renu Toora … … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opp. Party ------- CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RONGON MUKHOPADHYAY ------- For the Petitioner : Ms. Saba Ali, Adv. For the State : A.P.P ------ 03/23.04.2026 Heard Ms. Saba Ali, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. In this application the petitioner has prayed for quashing of the entire criminal proceedings in connection with AHTU P.S Case No. 01 of 2023. It has been alleged that the informant was trafficked to Delhi on the assurance of giving her employment. Subsequently one Man Singh had taken her from Delhi and handed over to one Sandeep Purty who engaged her in domestic work without giving her any remuneration. It has also been alleged that one Vinay Kumar had made physical relationship repeatedly with the informant, as a result of which she became pregnant and subsequently she delivered a child. The father of the informant had gone to Delhi and taken her to his house after which the F.I.R. was instituted. Submission has been advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner that in the trial concerning Sandeep Purty the victim has been examined and she has been declared hostile by the prosecution. It has further been submitted that there is no role played by the petitioner in the First Information Report and in fact the petitioner was a well- wisher of the victim. Learned A.P.P has opposed the prayer for quashing of the entire criminal proceedings as made in this application. The petitioner has taken recourse to the statements of the victim recorded in a separate trial in which she has been declared hostile 2 but the same in no circumstance will dilute the allegations against the petitioner who is also said to be involved in trafficking the informant. It appears that the petitioner is absconding and several times 82 Cr.P.C and 83 Cr.P.C have been issued against her. In view of the fact that investigation against the petitioner is still continuing and the petitioner having not cooperated in the investigation and is still absconding, this writ petition stands dismissed.
