This petition is filed for quashment of FIR. The petitioner is an absconder.
It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that against the son of the petitioner, charge sheet has been filed and the only evidence against the petitioner is memorandum recorded under section 27 of the Evidence Act.
A case has been registered against the petitioner at Crime No.449/2013 for the offences punishable under sections 419 & 420, IPC and section 3 read with section 4 of the MP Recognised Examination Act at Police Station Jhansi Road, Gwalior. At present, the petitioner has been absconding. The allegation against the petitioner is that he got admission of his son in the course of M.B.B.S., by illegal means as somebody else appeared in place of son of the petitioner in the examination of PMT for the year 2007. The allegation against the petitioner is serious in nature. Hence, it could not be said that there is no evidence against the petitioner.
We do not find any merit in this petition for quashment of the FIR. The petition is dismissed.
Certified copy as per rules.
