2. Facts in brief are that the respondent complainant Smt. ‘V’ aged 40 years, got the above mentioned FIR registered through a complaint submitted in the court of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bhilwara. She alleged in the complaint that her husband, who was working as a salesman, came into contact with the petitioner during the course of business activities. About 10 months ago, when her husband was out in the market, the petitioner Shankar Lal came and inquired about him. When she told the accused petitioner that her husband was not at home, Shankar Lal insisted that he had to meet him and saying so, he barged into the complainant’s house and misbehaved with her. The complainant resisted the attempts of the accused but he forced himself upon her and subjected her to rape. She was threatened that in case, she spoke out about the incident, she as well as all her family members would be killed. Thereafter, the accused frequently visited complainant’s house in her husband’s absence and subject her to rape. She submitted a complaint to the Superintendent of Police, Bhilwara whereupon, an FIR No.133/2014 was registered against the petitioner, however, he agreed that he would stop harassing the complainant in future whereupon, she and her husband entered into a compromise and withdrew the report. Despite such assurance given by the accused petitioner, on 16.06.2014, he again forcibly entered into the complainant’s house in absence of her husband and children and threatened her that he had prepared forged documents of her house and would sell it. Under this threat, the accused again subjected the prosecutrix to rape. She tried to resist his attempt whereupon, the accused took out a knife and threatened to kill her. On the basis of this report, the instant FIR came to be registered against the petitioner for the above offences. The petitioner has now approached this Court by way of the instant misc. petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking quashing of the above FIR.

Prior to that, the complainant had lodged an FIR No.133/2014 against the petitioner with the allegations of rape on 25.02.2014. When she was examined under Section 164 Cr.P.C. in connection with the said FIR, she categorically stated that she had lodged the case of rape against the accused because a monetary dispute arose between him and her husband and that an advocate had instigated her to file the case, even though Shankar Lal had never assaulted her sexually. Shri Farzand Ali has placed on record of the petition a copy of the complaint filed by the complainant at Police Station Pratap Nagar under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. against the petitioner on 29.06.2014. He urges that in the said complaint, all that was alleged by the complainant was that the petitioner and her husband were involved in commercial transactions with each other. The petitioner was threatening the complainant and her husband day in and day out and often became abusive as well. Because of this conduct of the accused, the complainant was fearing harm to her and her husband’s lives. The statement of the complainant was recorded in connection with the said complaint by the SHO, Police Station Pratap Nagar on 29.06.2014 and in such statement, she did not give any reference to the so-called incident of sexual assault which allegedly took place on 16.06.2014.
