It is alleged in the Complaint Petition that the Complainant purchased AC from petitioner No.2. Petitioner No.1 is Area Service Manager of Hitachi Home & Life Solution India Ltd. Complainant has alleged that aforesaid Hitachi AC split AC 1.5 Ton never worked properly. The Complainant approached the accused persons and also made telephonic calls to sort out the problem, but no proper action was taken by the accused persons. Legal notice was served by registered post on 16.02.2010 and thereafter instant case has been filed. 3. Counsel for the petitioners has submitted that no offence under Section(s) 348 and 420 Indian Penal Code is made out. 4. Counsel for the petitioners has read out Solemn Affirmation of the Complainant, which has been annexed as Annexure-2, wherein, the Complainant has admitted that AC was delivered to him on 15.03.2009. He has further stated in Solemn Affirmation that AC did not work properly and thereafter he lodged complaint with petitioner No.2. Petitioner No.2 sent an Engineer, but it did not work. Then, he told the Complainant to lodge complaint with the Company (petitioner No.1). Thereafter, the Complainant sent legal notice and then filed the present complaint. 5. From the allegation in the Complaint Petition and the statement of the Complainant on Solemn Affirmation, it appears that AC was delivered to the Complainant. There was some technical defect(s) which was also attended by petitioner No.2. The complaint has been filed after one year. 6. From the Solemn Affirmation of the Complainant and statement of the witnesses, this Court does not find any ingredients of offence under Section(s) 348 and 420 Indian Penal Code against the petitioners. 7. Therefore, the impugned order is not in accordance with law. 8.
