SHAM LAL Vs. STATE OF PUNJAB

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE instant petition has been filed by Sham Lal -petitioner through Special Attorney, namely; Shiv Kumar his real brother for quashing of FIR No. 140 dated 14.5.2000 registered under Section 306/34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) Police Station Nakodar, District Jalandhar and all subsequent proceedings arising therefrom.

(2.) THE FIR was registered on the statement of Ramesh Kumar, brother of Manjit Kaur (deceased). The petitioner was initially declared a proclaimed offender. Charge -sheet was presented against parents of petitioner and his sister -in -law. They were acquitted vide judgment dated 18.1.2003 (Annexure P -2), passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Jalandhar, in Sessions Case No. 27 of 2001. On that basis the petitioner filed the instant petition.

(3.) I have heard learned petitioner's counsel, learned State counsel and after giving my thoughtful consideration to the matter, I find that the instant petition is total misuse of the process of the Court and the petitioner does not deserve indulgence of this Court.
