(2.) THE circumstances leading to the present petition may be narrated in brief as under :

(3.) NORMALLY , this Court does not entertain such petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C., specially when the facts alleged in the petition are subject -matter of inquiry in the criminal case itself. I am also of the opinion that this Court cannot quash the proceedings merely on the basis of certain letters written by the relatives to the complainant or the complainant herself, unless those letters are proved during the inquiry, but some special circumstances have come before this Court.
