2014 (11) TMI 1282 - SUPREME COURTCheating - dishonest preparation of an agreement for sale of her lands - HELD THAT:- The order of the High Court is not in accordance with law and in the facts of the case no interference should have been made with the investigation by the Police by quashing the FIR. The High Court was not justified in interfering with the Police investigation and quashing the FIR. This is not at all a rare case. Without thorough investigation, it is not possible or proper to hold whether allegations made by the complainant are true or not. Hence the investigation should, have been allowed to continue so that on filing of the report Under Section 173 Code of Criminal Procedure the affected party could pursue its remedy against the report in accordance with law. Keeping in view the fact that the criminal case was at the stage of investigation by the Police the High Court was not justified in holding that the investigation of the impugned FIR is totally unwarranted and that the same would amount to gross abuse of the process of court. The impugned order of the High Court under appeal is set aside. The appeal stands allowed.
