Judgment :-
1. This is an application for quashing the proceedings
in Criminal Case No.163/S/94 pending in the Court of
the Metropolitan Magistrate, 44th Court Andheri, Mumbai
and for further quashing and setting aside issuance of
process in the said case vide order dated 13.12.1994
passed by the concerned Magistrate.
2. I have heard both sides at length. It appears that
the said criminal case was filed by the present
respondent no.2 on 2.8.1993. The verification of the
complaint was effected on 9.11.1999. It appears that
police enquiry was directed under Section 202 of the
Cr.P.C. and after the police report was received and
perused by the Metropolitan Magistrate on 15.12.1994,
process was issued for the offence under Sections 323,
504, 506-II and 357 of IPC.
3. The present application has been filed without
enclosing the statements recorded by the police or the
police report which are the documents upon which the
impugned order was inter alia based. On making
enquiry, the Advocate for the applicants fairly stated
that no attempt has been made to obtain certified copy
of the statement recorded by the police or of the
police report which was one of the documents on the
: 3 :
basis of which the impugned order was passed. On this
ground alone, the application is liable to be
dismissed.
4. Apart from this, with regard to the Complaint, it
relates to two incidents which have allegedly occurred
on 20.7.1993 & 24.7.1993. It was sought to be
contended that the Complaint was false because on
22.7.1993, accused no.3 Pawankumar Mishra was arrested
and produced before a Court in Bihar. Similarly
accused no.2-Sonelal Mishra, accused no.3-Fanainath
Mishra, accused no.4-Gulab Mishra and ac
