Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicants have been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. Learned counsel further submits that the prosecution case initiated against the applicants being arbitrary and illegal, is nothing but an abuse of the process of the court. He further submits that the impugned summoning order suffers from gross error and non-speaking because there is no material under which, the applicants could be summoned, therefore the proceedings initiated against the applicants pursuant to the summoning order is liable to be quashed. Further submission is that malafides behind the prosecution are apparent on the face of record and if the proceedings against the applicants is allowed to go on, it will result in the abuse of court's process. Learned counsel for the applicants therefore submits, no prosecution could lie against the applicants, in such circumstances, interference of this Court is required to meet the ends of justice. 4.
