However, he escaped but again he was kidnapped and variously assaulted due to which he had to be treated in the Hospital. When he returned to Patna, the accused persons also came to Patna and demanded a sum of Rs. 50,000/- as the cost that had been incurred by them in the business dealing. The court after enquiry under Section 202 Cr.P.C, took cognizance for offence under Sections 420, 365, 386, 320 and 120B of the Indian Penal Code and issued summons. The petitioner alongwith other co-accused persons moved this Court for quashing the order of cognizance and this Court quashed part of the complaint and observed that only Sections 420 and 323 I.P.C. was made out against the accused persons. 4. The learned Magistrate after the order passed in Cr. Misc. 1217 of 2007 as mentioned above, recalled the warrant of arrest issued against the accused persons and stayed non-bailable warrant of arrest and attachment till further orders.
