In this petition filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, petitioner who is arraigned as accused No.1, is seeking quashing of criminal proceedings initiated against him in Cr.No.67/2023 of Ijoor PS, for the offence punishable Sections 177 , 197, 465 and 466 IPC.
2. In support of the petition, the petitioner has contended that the registering of case and resultant FIR and investigation are illegal and invalid and as such liable to be set aside. The concerned police without proper appreciation of allegations made in the complaint have registered the case and proceeding with the investigation. Since petitioner is a Government servant, it is necessary to issue show cause notice and make enquiry, only after which criminal proceedings may be initiated. There are no specific allegations against him. There
