In the said complaint, except petitioner no. 3-Babybai and petitioner No. 1-Damodhar, no other petitioners have been added as accused in the complaint making specific allegations much-less even general allegations against other accused. Therefore, it is submitted that after lapse of more than two months period from filing the said complaint respondent no. 2 again lodged FIR in the MIDC Police Station, Jalgaon, wherein names of other petitioners have been added as accused and general allegations are made against them. It is submitted that since other petitioners than petitioner no. 3 Babybai and petitioner no. 1 - Damodhar were not added as accused in the earlier complaint filed by respondent no. 2, and after thought the FIR is lodged after lapse of two months thereafter, therefore the FIR deserves to be quashed.

In the present case, upon reading an allegations in the FIR, alleged offences have been disclosed, therefore, the petition is devoid of merits and same deserves to be dismissed. 6. We have heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties. With their able assistance perused the documents placed on record and also the allegations in the complaint and FIR. It is not in dispute that respondent no. 2 filed complaint on 16.09.2015 before the Court of Judicial Magistrate First Class, Jalgaon, wherein present petitioner no. 1 Damodhar and petitioner no. 3 Babybai were added as accused. 7. Upon careful perusal of the contents of said complaint, it appears that there are allegations against those two accused i.e. petitioner no. 1 Damodhar and petitioner no. 3 Babybai and there are no specific allegations qua other petitioners. 8. Be that as it may, upon reading allegations in the FIR, it appears that there are allegations against petitioners no. 1 to 4 attributing an overt act to them. So far as all petitioners are concerned, there are allegations in the FIR, which are under:- xxx xxx xxx 9. In our considered view, when respondent no. 2 had an opportunity to make allegations when complaint was filed, however, there are no allegations made as against petitioners except petitioner no. 1 and 3. There is force in the argument of the learned counsel for the petitioners that petitioners no. In our considered view, when respondent no. 2 had an opportunity to make allegations when complaint was filed, however, there are no allegations made as against petitioners except petitioner no. 1 and 3. There is force in the argument of the learned counsel for the petitioners that petitioners no. 5 to 10 are not residing at Arwi and residing at difference places and they had no role in commission of alleged offences. 10. The Supreme Court in the case of State of Haryana vs. Bhajanlal, AIR 1992 SC 604 , held that, in following categories the Court would be able to quash the FIR: "1. Whether the allegations made in the F.I.R. or the complaint even if they are taken at their face value and accepted in their entirety do not prima facie constitute any offence or make out a case against the accused; 2. Where the allegations in the First Information Report and other materials, if any, accompanying the F.I.R. do not disclose a cognizable offence, justifying an investigation by police officers under Section 156(1) of the Code, except under an order of Magistrate within the purview of Section 155(2) of the Code; 3. Where the uncontroverted allegations made in the F.I.R. or complaint and the evidence collected in support of the same do not disclose the commission of any offence and make out a case against the applicant; 4. Where the allegations in the F.I.R. do not constitute a cognizable offence, no investigation is permitted by a police officer without an order of a Magistrate as contemplated under Section 155(2) of the Code; 5. Where the allegations made in the F.I.R. or complaint are so absurd and inherently improbable on the basis of which no prudent person can ever reach a just conclusion that there is sufficient ground for proceeding against the accused; 6. Where there is an express legal bar engrafted in any of the provisions of the Code or the concerned Act, (under which a criminal proceeding is instituted) to the institution and continuance of the proceedings and/or where there is a specific provisions in the Code of the concerned Act, providing efficacious redress for the grievance of the aggrieved party. 7. Where there is an express legal bar engrafted in any of the provisions of the Code or the concerned Act, (under which a criminal proceeding is instituted) to the institution and continuance of the proceedings and/or where there is a specific provisions in the Code of the concerned Act, providing efficacious redress for the grievance of the aggrieved party. 7. Where a criminal proceeding is manifestly attended with mala-fide and/or where the proceeding is maliciously instituted with an ulterior motive for wreaking vengeance on the accused and with a view to spite him due to private and personal grudge." 11. Keeping in view the aforementioned category nos. 1 and 5, laid down in the case of State of Harayana vs. Bhajanlal (supra), in our opinion so far as petitioners no. 5 to 10 are concerned, alleged offences are not disclosed and therefore further investigation on the basis of complaint - FIR would be abuse of process of law, hence, FIR to the extent of these petitioners deserves to be quashed. 12. So far as petitioners no. 1 to 4 are concerned though there are no specific allegations against petitioner no. 2-Rambhau Gulhane and no. 4 - Pankaj Rambhau Gulhane in the complaint nevertheless there are allegations in the FIR against them. It is also relevant to mention that petitioners no. 2, 3 and 4 also resides at Arwi, where the matrimonial house of respondent no. 2 is situated. In that view of the matter, at this stage, no case is made out for quashing first information report in respect of petitioners no. 1 to 4. 13. In the light of the discussion herein above, criminal writ petition to the extent of petitioners no. 1 to 4 i.e. (1) Mr. Damodar Rambhau Gulhane, (2) Mr. Rambhau Ganpatrao Gulhane, (3) Mrs. Babybai Rambhau Gulhane and (4) Pankaj Rambhau Gulhane stands rejected. However, rejection of writ petition as against petitioners no. 1 to 4 should not be construed as an impediment to take out appropriate remedy for filing application for discharge in the event of filing charge-sheet by the Investigating Officer. 14. So far as petitioners no. 5 to 10 i.e. (5) Lata Abhijeet Gulhane, (6) Mrs. Nanda Damodar Banarse (7) Mr. Damodar Kisanrao Banarse, (8) Mrs. Mona Anuj Shirrao, (9) Mr. Dileep Banarse and (10) Mrs. Maya Dileep Banarse are concerned, the FIR stands quashed and set aside. 15. 14.
