CORAM : A.P. BHANGALE, J.
DATED : 12th April, 2012.
Heard.
The applicant, by this application under
Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure,
has prayed for to quash and set aside the First
Information Report No.35 of 2012 dt.23.2.2012
registered under Sections 143, 147, 387, 120-B
and 109 of the Indian Penal Code reported at
Police Station, Ajni, Nagpur.
According to the applicant, inherent
powers are required to be exercised in the instant
matter because police have concocted a story and
involved the applicant herein in the matter,
though he is innocent. Further, according to the
applicant, his name was not mentioned in the
complaint and no specific role was attributed to
him while the complainant had filed an application
for police protection on 20.2.2012. According to
124apl220.12.odt 2
the applicant, the F.I.R. is nothing but abuse of
process of law and therefore, it is required to be
quashed.
Copy of the F.I.R. is annexed with the
application. It appears that F.I.R. No.35 of 2012 is
reported at Police Station, Ajni on 23.2.2012
under various Sections such as 143, 147, 387,
120-B and 109 of the Indian Penal Code. The oral
report indicates that one Akhil Krushnarao Borikar
reported that his mother, while she was
unmarried, had purchased plot nos. 11 and 12 in
Block-F from Survey No.22/1 situated at
Babulkheda. About that plot, the first informant
had received threats from one Ashish Khadatkar,
who was intending to grab that plot, even when
the first informant's mother had no intention to
sell it. On one day, when the first informant
visited the site, he found one Iron Board
mentioning name of his mother as Shindu
Lohkare, Mob. No.9763141940 on the site. When
the first informant contacted on that mobile
number, the person on the other end asked him
to come near Omkar Nagar chowk to meet him.
The first informant went to meet that
person, who was unknown. Along with him, there
were certain persons who were appearing like
gundas. The unknown person told the first
informant that he is possessing the plot and that
the police will cause no harm to them. The first
informant met Shri Pappu Mendhe, resident of
124apl220.12.odt 3
Wadi. On information, he came to know that one
Gijrya and Tarachand Khillare had displayed the
Board on that plot and the name of the unknown
person was Gijrya. He had described the xerox
papers in possession of the first informant as
fraud and Tarachand said to the first informant
that “ yeh sab hum kabje lene ka kaam Raju
Bhadre ke kehane se milkar karte hai. Kabja
nikalna hai toh len den karna hoga; tum police ke
paas bhi jaayenge toh bhi police kuch nahi
karengi. Hamne yeh kabja liya hai, hum police ko
den dete hai”. Thus, the first informant was
threatened. At that time, he had not reported
about the threats to police. Mobile Number of the
first informant was taken by Tarachand Khillare
and he gave his Mobile No.9373334380 to the
first informant. Ta
