THESE CRIMINAL PETITIONS HAVING BEEN HEARD AND
RESERVED FOR ORDERS ON 11.06.2024, COMING ON FOR
PRONOUNCEMENT THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:-
CORAM: THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE M.NAGAPRASANNA
CAV ORDER
The petitioner/accused No.1 in Criminal Petition No.4173 of
2022, earlier working as Executive Engineer in the Public Works
Department, is knocking at the doors of this Court, in the subject
petition, claiming to be aggrieved by the initiation of proceedings in
Crime No.4 of 2022 for offences punishable under Sections 406,
409, 420, 465, 468, 471, 477A r/w Section 120B of the Indian
Penal Code, Section 23 of the Karnataka Transparency in Public
Procurement Act, 1999 ('the 1999 Act' for short) and Section
13(1)(c) & (d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 ('the Act'
for short).
The companion petition in Criminal Petition No.4202 of 2022
is preferred by accused Nos. 2 and 3 in the same crime and for the
5
same offences. It is therefore, the two petitions are taken up
together and considered by this common order. For the sake of
convenience, facts obtaining in Criminal petition No.4173 of 2022
would be noticed.
2. Heard Sri K. Satish, learned counsel appearing for the
petitioner in Crl.P.No.4173 of 2022 and Sri. N.Srinivas, learned
counsel appearing for petitoners in Crl.P.No.4202 of 2022,
Sri B.B. Patil, learned Special Public Prosecutor for respondent No.1
and Sri R.R. Varun, learned counsel appearing for respondent
No.2/complainant.
3. The facts, in brief, germane are as follows:
The petitioner, at the relevant point in time, was working as
Executive Engineer in the Public Works Department. A private
complaint comes to be registered by the 2nd respondent/
complainant in P.C.R.No.2 of 2021 invoking Section 200 of the
Cr.P.C. for the aforesaid offences. The matter was referred to the
investigation under Section 156(3) of the Cr.P.C. to the then Anti
Corruption Bureau and the Police then registers a crime in Crime
6
No.4 of 2022 again for the aforesaid offences. The gist of the
allegation in the complaint was that, when the petitioner was
working as Executive Engineer, on deputation, in the Kaveri
Neeravari Nigam he had entrusted execution of work to accused
Nos.2 and 3, the contractors by submitting a report to the
concerned that the work had to be attended immediately at four
lakes of Krishnarajapet Taluk viz., Sindhaghatta lake, Haralahalli
lake, Hosaholalu lake and Agraharabachahalli lake on the ground
that they are badly damaged on account of heavy flow of water due
to heavy rain and floods that happened then. Pursuant to the
recommendation for the work, a decision was taken by the State on
28-01-2020 that the lakes be repaired immediately, by declaring to
execute the works on emergency.
4. In connections with those works, the contractors were
identified and specific contracts including technical estimates were
submitted for approval to the Chief Engineer of the Kaveri Neeravari
Nigam. The Chief Engineer entrusts the work to accused No.2 of
Hosaholalu and Haralahalli lakes for an amount of `2.7 crores and
`1.3 crores respectively and the other two lakes at `2.2 crores in
7
favour accused No.3. The complainant had contended that the
works entrusted was in gross violation of the 1999 Act and there
had been mismanagement and misappropriation of funds and,
therefore, proceedings should be initiated against the officials,
including the accused in these cases. Pursuant to registration of
crime, on reference, the petitioners/accused 1, 2 and 3 knocked at
the doors of this Court by filing the subject petitions on the same
day. This Court in terms of the order dated 12-08-2022 granted an
interim order of stay. The interim order of stay so granted is in
subsistence even today. The interim order is not granted in the
case of accused Nos. 2 and 3, but only in the case of accused No.1.
After execution of the work, accused No.1 retires on attaining the
age of superannuation. Therefore, he is now a retired employee.
5. One analogous development happens in the meanwhile.
Since accused No.1 was a public servant, approval to prosecute the
public servant was necessary as obtaining under Section 17A of the
Act. As the petitioner was by then retired, sanction comes to be
refused. The complainant knocks at the doors of this Court in Writ
Petition No.1945 of 2023. During the pendency of the said writ
8
petition, the State accords sanction by reviewing the earlier order.
But, the trial had not commenced on the score that interim order is
operating in the subject criminal petition. It is, therefore, the
matters are heard.
6. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners in both
the petitions would vehemently contend that all the works were
performed in accordance with law. Section 4(g) exemption under
the 1999 Act was taken, as there were emergency situations which
necessitated immediate works to be executed. It is not that the
work had begun on 27-03-2020 but the work had begun way back
in the year 2019 and it cannot be alleged that there has been
misconduct, much less a criminal misconduct on the part of the
petitioner/accused No.1, which would become ingredient for the
offences so alleged. The learned counsel would further contend
that there is no warrant for continuation of proceedings and
accordingly the proceedings should be quashed. The very learned
counsel representing the contractors, accused Nos. 2 and 3 while
reiterating his submissions supra would contend that every bill for
the work that was carried out was furnished to the State and the
9
State on inspection of the works done by the accused, cleared the
bills not before 31-03-2020 but in the month of July 2020.
Therefore, the contention that all works had been done during
COVID-19 and bills were released for payment is a figment of
imagination of the complainant.
7. Per-contra, the learned counsel appearing for the
complainant would only place reliance upon the order dated
17-04-2023 passed by this Court in Writ Petition No.1945 of 2023
wherein petitioner/accused No.1 in Crl.P.No.4173 of 2022 was
respondent No.3 and contend that everything has been looked into
by this Court at the time of disposal of the said petition, which
would clinch the issue concerned in these petitions.
8. I have given my anxious consideration to the submissions
made by the respective learned counsel and have perused the
material on record.
9. The afore-narrated facts are not in dispute. A private
complaint being registered against the petitioners is a matter of
10
record. Since the issue sprang from the complaint, I deem it
appropriate to notice the complaint. It reads as follows:

15The concerned Court refers the matter for investigation under Section 156(3) of the Cr.P.C. The reference results in drawing up of a First Information Report by the ACB for the afore-quoted offences. To proceed further with the investigation, since there was already a direction to investigate, what was necessary was prior approval as obtaining under Section 17A of the Act. The State rejects the approval. The rejection of the approval is called in question by the very complainant before this Court in Writ Petition No.1945 of 2023. The rejection of approval by the State reads as follows:

This Court directed production of entire records and the time line of beginning and completion of the work. During the pendency of Writ Petition No.1945 of 2023 approval to investigate is granted.
Recording the approval so granted the petition was disposed of, as a disposal simpliciter, but recording all that has happened in that case. Therefore, it becomes germane to notice the order that is passed in its entirety. It reads as follows:
".... .... ....
3. Facts in brief that leads the petitioner to this Court, in the subject petition, as borne out from the pleadings, are as follows:
The petitioner is the complainant, the complaint is against the 3rd respondent an Executive Engineer, now retired, on attaining the age of superannuation. The allegations pertain to the period during which the 3rd respondent was working as Executive Engineer. Floods caused certain damage to four tanks in K.R.Pet taluk, Sindagatta tank, Haralahalli tank, Hosaholalu tank and Agrahara Bachihalli tank. This resulted in water seeping into the agricultural fields and causing damage to the crops. The work of repair of the said tanks was declared to be of urgent nature and accordingly permission was accorded to Cauvery Neeravari Nigama Limited to carry out such repairs granting exemption under Section 4(a) of the Karnataka Transparency in Public Procurements 19 Act, 1999 ('Act' for short). The declaration reads as follows:
"C¢ü¸ÀÆZÀ£É PÀ£ÁðlPÀ ¸ÁªÀðd¤PÀ ¸ÀAUÀæºÀuÉUÀ¼À°è ¥ÁgÀzÀ±ÀðPÀvÉ PÁAiÉÄÝ 1999 gÀ PÀ®A 4(J) CrAiÀÄ°è ¤ÃqÀ¯ÁVgÀĪÀ C¢üPÁgÀzÀ£ÀéAiÀÄ ºÁUÀÆ ¸ÀÄvÉÆÛÃ¯É ¸ÀASÉå:¦qÀ§Æèöår 381 DPÉÆÃ-3/06, ¢£ÁAPÀ:10.11.2006 gÀ°è ¤ÃrgÀĪÀ ¸Àà¶ÖÃPÀgÀtzÀ C£ÀéAiÀÄ, ªÀåªÀ¸ÁÜ¥ÀPÀ ¤zÉÃð±ÀPÀgÀÄ PÁªÉÃj ¤ÃgÁªÀj ¤UÀªÀÄ ¤AiÀÄ«ÄvÀ EªÀgÀÄ ¢£ÁAPÀ:27.12.2019gÀ ¥ÀvÀæzÀ°è ªÀgÀ¢ ªÀiÁrgÀĪÀ ¥ÀæªÁºÀ¢AzÁV ºÁ¤UÉƼÀUÁVgÀĪÀ PÉ.Dgï.¥ÉÃmÉ vÁ®ÆèQ£À ¹AzsÀUÀlÖ PÉgÉ, ºÀgÀ¼À°è PÉgÉ, ºÉƸÀºÉƼÀ®Ä PÉgÉ ªÀÄvÀÄÛ CUÀæºÁgÀ ¨ÁZÀºÀ½î PÉgÉUÀ¼À zÀÄgÀ¹Û PÁªÀÄUÁjAiÀÄ£ÀÄß "vÀÄvÀÄð PÁªÀÄUÁj" JAzÀÄ WÉÆö¹zÉ."
It is claimed that the work began since then. On 24.03.2020 on account of the country being engulfed with the pandemic i.e., COVID-19, a nation wide lockdown was declared by the Government of India, whereby all activities stood suspended and necessary works also came to be deferred. On 27.03.2020 it is the allegation of the petitioner that despite lockdown certain work order was issued to repair the damage of the tanks aforesaid and on 31.03.2020, the work is said to have been completed and a running bill is submitted to the tune of Rs.5.34 crores, there were 3 running bills.
4. This became the subject matter of a complaint before the 2nd respondent/Lokayukta. The complaint was concerning the exemption granted under Section 4(a) of the Act for a work which was more than Rs.5 crores, which could not have been issued except by issuance of a notification of tender. The Lokayukta examines the issue qua the exemption granted and holds that there was no illegality committed by the State in granting exemption under Section 4(a) of the Act, in the light of the fact that the works had to be attended with immediacy. Therefore, the effort of the petitioner to register a complaint before the Lokayukta had failed. The petitioner then chooses to knock at the doors of the learned Magistrate under Section 200 of the Cr.P.C seeking registration of a private complaint. The Magistrate, accepting the complaint, refers the matter for investigation. For investigation, it was necessary for the Investigating Agency to obtain prior approval from the hands of the Competent Authority as obtaining under Section 17A of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 for prevention of corruption 20 offences. After reference by the learned Magistrate, an FIR comes to be registered in Crime No.4 of 2022 for offences punishable under Sections 420, 406, 409, 465, 468, 471, 477A r/w Section 120(B) of the IPC, Sections 23 of the Act and under Sections 7, 8, 9, 13(1)(C) and (D) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 (Amendment Act-2018).
5. The Investigating Agency sought approval from the hands of the Competent Authority to conduct investigation in the light of the crime being registered. The Competent Authority, in terms of its order dated 03.01.2022, holds that there was no illegality in all the four works entrusted to the 3rd respondent and on the ground that a parallel enquiry was pending before the Lokayukta, the approval was declined. It is this order that drives the petitioner to this Court in the subject petition.
6. On the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court on 27.03.2023 had passed the following order:
The petitioner is before this Court seeking to quash an order dated 03.01.2022 whereby the 1st respondent/State declines to grant sanction for prosecution of the 3rd respondent who has now retired from service.
The issue relates to the period during his service. The 3rd respondent is alleged that while he was working in the cadre of Executive Engineer at the Hemavathi Yedadande Nala Vibhaga, applies for an exemption under Section 4(a) of the Karnataka Transparency in Public Procurement Act, 1999 contending that certain works are necessary to be executed immediately and secures the said 4(a) exemption under the Act. This became a subject matter of a complaint before the Lokayuktha. The Lokayuktha on examination of the records closes the complaint on the ground that there was no violation of law against others including the petitioner for having secured 4(a) exemption. The matter ends there.
The petitioner registers a private complaint invoking 21 Section 200 of the Cr.P.C. pursuant to which, an FIR comes to be registered in Crime No.4 of 2022. Sanction was sought to proceed further by the Investigating Officer. Government declines to grant sanction on the ground that a similar complaint was pending before the Lokayuktha.
The learned Additional Government Advocate submits that the petitioner has no locus to challenge.
The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that for rejection or according of sanction to prosecute the order must bear application of mind and it should be after consideration of the entire material on record. The learned counsel takes this Court through the entire material on record that was available before the Competent Authority, which are all documents appended to the present petition, a perusal of which shocks the conscience of the Court for the following reasons:
- Entire nation was clamped with lockdown on account of the spread of the pandemic COVID-19 with effect from 24.03.2020. No Government office was open, no work was to be undertaken.
- In spite of the lockdown, the 3rd respondent issues a work order on 27.03.2020 for the purpose of construction of retaining wall to waste weir halla, improvements to waste weirs and improvement to sluice canal of Hosaholalu Doddakere to one P.K.Shivaramu. The work order was admittedly issued on 27.03.2020. The contractor to whom the work order was issued completes the laborious work in 3 days and submits a bill of such work contending that he had completed the work and it was a running accounts bill. All this happen during the lockdown.
- A bill of Rs.5,02,78,000/- (Rupees Five Crores Two lakhs Seventy Eight Thousand only) is immediately cleared on the approval of the 3rd respondent. Therefore, the work order which is issued on 27.03.2020, is completed within 3 days i.e., on 30.03.2020, on 31.03.2020 a bill is submitted and the aforesaid amount is immediately cleared. All these 22 happen during the lockdown when all the offices were closes and all the works had been suspended.
With the aforesaid facts, it further shocks as to how the Competent Authority has declined to grant sanction on the ground that a similar case is pending before the Loakayuktha notwithstanding the fact that on the said date, the proceedings before the Lokayuktha had already been closed. The 3rd respondent has not bartered away his money or the Competent Authority who has rejected sanction has not lost his money. What is bartered away is "public money".
Therefore, the learned Additional Government Advocate is directed to secure instructions and produce the records that went into the impugned action by the next date of hearing.
List this matter on 05.04.2023 for further hearing at 2.30 p.m."
In the light of the afore-quoted order, the State Government has placed on record, portions of the original records and have indicated the calendar of events, as has happened in the case at hand. The calender of events reads as follows:

7. A little description of the calendar of events would become necessary. Facts that have happened upto 28.01.2020 are not germane. On 28.01.2020, the aforesaid exemption under Section 4(a) of the Act was granted. On 03.03.2020 first work of Hosaholalu tank restoration work is completed in all respects even before entering into an agreement for conduct of such work. On 23.03.2020 Government's approval is communicated to the Chief Engineer from the Managing Director's office. Even before the approval could be given, the progress of the work in 2 tanks was 50% and 60%. What is shocking is the incidents that have happened on 27.03.2020. On 27.03.2020 when all the offices and the entire country was under lockdown, Government's approval is communicated by the Chief Engineer with instructions that the works should be completed as early as possible. Same day work orders were issued for all 3 works with the help of the staff residing in the colony itself which was beside the office premises. Therefore, what the State depicts is work from home as orders emanate from the residences of the staff. On the same day, all the staff residing in Hemavathi colony besides the office premises were 29 directed to take measurements of the work already done and record the portion of work executed. All these things happen on the same day i.e., on 27.03.2020 during the thick of lockdown. On 30.03.2020 progress of the work is submitted. The work in one of the tanks i.e., Hosaholalu tank is said to have been completed to the tune of 100% and in respect of the other two, Haralahalli and Sindaghatta 50% and 60% of work is said to be completed and bills were submitted for Rs.4.5 crores on 30.03.2020, all during a complete lockdown.
8. The agreements were executed on 27.03.2020 and the works which stood at 50% and 60% in two of the tanks complete during the lockdown, measurements are taken, work execution report is submitted along with the bills. The clearance of the bills may have been at a later date, but all the aforesaid happen during the lockdown. If these were the dates, there was no warrant for the State Government to have declined approval for investigation. Approval is declined on the ground that parallel enquiry before the Lokayukta was pending. As a matter of fact, the Lokayukta had already closed the proceeding on the date on which the approval was refused. It is therefore this Court had directed the Government to answer as to how the approval could be rejected, on the ground that proceedings before the Lokayuktha were pending while the fact is that it was closed.
9. Now at the time when the hearing was on, the learned Additional Government Advocate passes on an order dated 11.04.2023 by which the State Government has accorded approval as obtaining under Section 17(a) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 for conduct of investigation in terms of the crime so registered in Crime No.4 of 2022 for the aforesaid offences.The aforesaid facts became necessary to be noticed in the light of the memo filed by the learned Additional Government Advocate indicating the dates along with photographs. Any further observation beyond what is already narrated hereinabove would cause prejudice to the 3rd respondent or the investigating agency. Therefore, this Court would hold its hands for any further observations in the light of the approval being granted for investigating into the crime in Crime No.4 of 2022 under Section 17(a) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988.
3010. In the light of the approval being accorded, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the grievance of the petitioner is redressed. Therefore, with the aforesaid narration, the petition stands disposed.
Consequently, I.A.No.3 of 2023 also stands disposed."
(Emphasis supplied) By then, the subject criminal petitions had been preferred and in Criminal Petition No.4173 of 2022 an interim order was operating.
In the light of the interim order operating in favour of accused No.1, further investigation has not taken place. Plethora of justification is projected by the petitioner/accused No.1 seeking to place reliance on certain documents to demonstrate that there is no misappropriation in the bills being cleared during the time of COVID-19. It, therefore, becomes necessary to notice all the documents that are produced. The beginning of the problem is on 13-11-2019. The interdepartmental communication of 13-11-2019 reads as follows:

A final scrutiny note is generated on 29-09-2021 with regard to execution of works by accused Nos. 2 and 3. The issue now is, whether accused Nos. 2 and 3 have completed the works between certain dates which include the dates on which the entire country was under lock down.
4110. It is submitted that work orders were issued by the petitioner/accused No.1 in favour of accused Nos. 2 and 3 on 27-03-2020 when the nation was in the thick of complete lock down and no Government offices were functioning. It is ununderstandable as to how these documents are generated during such time when no office was even open. It is later, staff at 30% began to function, but between 23-03-2020 and 15-04-2020 the entire nation was on lock down. No office was even open to function. The justification is that the Executive Engineer/petitioner/accused No.1 has worked from home. He has inspected the works that were executed by accused Nos. 2 and 3 from his house as he was staying in the quarters near K.R. Pet Taluk. It is then measurements were taken about execution of work and recommendation was made for release of `5.2 crores. It is ununderstandable as to how such things could happen and how recommendations emerged during COVID-19 period. All these are noticed by this Court while disposing of Writ Petition No.1945 of 2023, which is quoted in extenso supra.
Therefore, when works have not been performed and without completion of works how bills have been cleared are all a matter of 42 evidence. The matter is yet to be investigated into in the light of the interim order subsisting in favour of accused No.1.
11. Since approval has been granted now by the Competent Authority to investigate into the matter and such being the case, investigation in the least would become necessary, as prima facie it appears that show of work done is projected and recommendation for release of the amount is made. This view stands to reason as the petitioner/accused No.1 was to retire on attaining the age of superannuation on 31-03-2020. All these are matters which necessitate investigation in the least. The subject petition involves maze of facts and touches upon menace of corruption. Therefore, it is necessary that such things are investigated and accused, if found guilty, be brought to books, more so, in the light of one glaring fact i.e., attendance register for the month of March, 2020 is produced.
In the said attendance register there is a post-script which reads as follows:
"«.¸ÀÆ.:- ¸ÀPÁðgÀzÀ ¸ÀÄvÉÆÛÃ¯É ¸ÀASÉå ¹D¸ÀÄE/123/r©JA.2020gÀ C£ÀéAiÀÄ PÉÆgÉÆ£À ¸ÀAPÁæ«ÄPÀ PÀ¬Ä¯É ¥ÀæAiÀÄÄPÀÛ PÀbÉÃjAiÀÄ°è PÀvÀðªÀå ¤ªÀð»¸ÀÄwÛgÀĪÀ UÀÆæ¥ï-©, UÀÆæ¥ï-¹, UÀÆæ¥ï- r C¢üPÁj/£ËPÀgÀgÀÄUÀ½UÉ ¢£ÁAPÀ 24.03.2020 jAzÀ 31-03-2020gÀ ªÀgÉUÉ PÀbÉÃjUÉ §gÀĪÀÅzÀjAzÀ «£Á¬Äw ¤ÃqÀ¯ÁVzÉ."43
In the post-script it is declared that between 24-03-2020 and 31-03-2020 all the staff were exempted from attending office as per Government circular due to lock down. If the entire office was closed, where all these documents are generated is a mystery and the mystery can be unfolded only by way of investigation or further proceedings before the concerned Court. It is in these circumstances the Apex Court in the case of KAPTAN SINGH v.
STATE OF UTTAR PRADESH1, has held as follows:
"9.1. At the outset, it is required to be noted that in the present case the High Court in exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC has quashed the criminal proceedings for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 406, 329 and 386 IPC. It is required to be noted that when the High Court in exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC quashed the criminal proceedings, by the time the investigating officer after recording the statement of the witnesses, statement of the complainant and collecting the evidence from the incident place and after taking statement of the independent witnesses and even statement of the accused persons, has filed the charge-sheet before the learned Magistrate for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 149, 406, 329 and 386 IPC and even the learned Magistrate also took the cognizance. From the impugned judgment and order [Radhey Shyam Gupta v. State of U.P., 2020 SCC OnLine All 914] passed by the High Court, it does not appear that the High Court took into consideration the material collected during the investigation/inquiry and even 1 (2021) 9 SCC 35 44 the statements recorded. If the petition under Section 482 CrPC was at the stage of FIR in that case the allegations in the FIR/complaint only are required to be considered and whether a cognizable offence is disclosed or not is required to be considered. However, thereafter when the statements are recorded, evidence is collected and the charge-sheet is filed after conclusion of the investigation/inquiry the matter stands on different footing and the Court is required to consider the material/evidence collected during the investigation.
Even at this stage also, as observed and held by this Court in a catena of decisions, the High Court is not required to go into the merits of the allegations and/or enter into the merits of the case as if the High Court is exercising the appellate jurisdiction and/or conducting the trial. As held by this Court in Dineshbhai Chandubhai Patel [Dineshbhai Chandubhai Patel v. State of Gujarat, (2018) 3 SCC 104 : (2018) 1 SCC (Cri) 683] in order to examine as to whether factual contents of FIR disclose any cognizable offence or not, the High Court cannot act like the investigating agency nor can exercise the powers like an appellate court. It is further observed and held that that question is required to be examined keeping in view, the contents of FIR and prima facie material, if any, requiring no proof. At such stage, the High Court cannot appreciate evidence nor can it draw its own inferences from contents of FIR and material relied on. It is further observed it is more so, when the material relied on is disputed. It is further observed that in such a situation, it becomes the job of the investigating authority at such stage to probe and then of the court to examine questions once the charge-sheet is filed along with such material as to how far and to what extent reliance can be placed on such material.
9.2. In Dhruvaram Murlidhar Sonar [Dhruvaram Murlidhar Sonar v. State of Maharashtra, (2019) 18 SCC 191 :
(2020) 3 SCC (Cri) 672] after considering the decisions of this Court in Bhajan Lal [State of Haryana v. Bhajan Lal, 1992 Supp (1) SCC 335 : 1992 SCC (Cri) 426] , it is held by this Court that exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC to quash the proceedings is an exception and not a rule. It is 45 further observed that inherent jurisdiction under Section 482 CrPC though wide is to be exercised sparingly, carefully and with caution, only when such exercise is justified by tests specifically laid down in the section itself. It is further observed that appreciation of evidence is not permissible at the stage of quashing of proceedings in exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC. Similar view has been expressed by this Court in Arvind Khanna [CBI v. Arvind Khanna, (2019) 10 SCC 686 : (2020) 1 SCC (Cri) 94] , Managipet [State of Telangana v. Managipet, (2019) 19 SCC 87 : (2020) 3 SCC (Cri) 702] and in XYZ [XYZ v. State of Gujarat, (2019) 10 SCC 337 : (2020) 1 SCC (Cri) 173] , referred to hereinabove.
9.3. Applying the law laid down by this Court in the aforesaid decisions to the facts of the case on hand, we are of the opinion that the High Court has exceeded its jurisdiction in quashing the criminal proceedings in exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC.
10. The High Court has failed to appreciate and consider the fact that there are very serious triable issues/allegations which are required to be gone into and considered at the time of trial. The High Court has lost sight of crucial aspects which have emerged during the course of the investigation. The High Court has failed to appreciate and consider the fact that the document i.e. a joint notarised affidavit of Mamta Gupta Accused 2 and Munni Devi under which according to Accused 2 Ms Mamta Gupta, Rs 25 lakhs was paid and the possession was transferred to her itself is seriously disputed. It is required to be noted that in the registered agreement to sell dated 27- 10-2010, the sale consideration is stated to be Rs 25 lakhs and with no reference to payment of Rs 25 lakhs to Ms Munni Devi and no reference to handing over the possession. However, in the joint notarised affidavit of the same date i.e. 27-10-2010 sale consideration is stated to be Rs 35 lakhs out of which Rs 25 lakhs is alleged to have been paid and there is a reference to transfer of possession to Accused 2. Whether Rs 25 lakhs has been paid or not the accused have to establish during the trial, because the accused are relying upon the said document and payment of Rs 25 lakhs as mentioned in the 46 joint notarised affidavit dated 27-10-2010. It is also required to be considered that the first agreement to sell in which Rs 25 lakhs is stated to be sale consideration and there is reference to the payment of Rs 10 lakhs by cheques. It is a registered document. The aforesaid are all triable issues/allegations which are required to be considered at the time of trial. The High Court has failed to notice and/or consider the material collected during the investigation.
11. Now so far as the finding recorded by the High Court that no case is made out for the offence under Section 406 IPC is concerned, it is to be noted that the High Court itself has noted that the joint notarised affidavit dated 27-10-2010 is seriously disputed, however as per the High Court the same is required to be considered in the civil proceedings. There the High Court has committed an error. Even the High Court has failed to notice that another FIR has been lodged against the accused for the offences under Sections 467, 468, 471 IPC with respect to the said alleged joint notarised affidavit. Even according to the accused the possession was handed over to them. However, when the payment of Rs 25 lakhs as mentioned in the joint notarised affidavit is seriously disputed and even one of the cheques out of 5 cheques each of Rs 2 lakhs was dishonoured and according to the accused they were handed over the possession (which is seriously disputed) it can be said to be entrustment of property. Therefore, at this stage to opine that no case is made out for the offence under Section 406 IPC is premature and the aforesaid aspect is to be considered during trial. It is also required to be noted that the first suit was filed by Munni Devi and thereafter subsequent suit came to be filed by the accused and that too for permanent injunction only. Nothing is on record that any suit for specific performance has been filed. Be that as it may, all the aforesaid aspects are required to be considered at the time of trial only.
12. Therefore, the High Court has grossly erred in quashing the criminal proceedings by entering into the merits of the allegations as if the High Court was exercising the appellate jurisdiction and/or conducting the trial. The High Court has exceeded its jurisdiction in 47 quashing the criminal proceedings in exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC.
13. Even the High Court has erred in observing that original complaint has no locus. The aforesaid observation is made on the premise that the complainant has not placed on record the power of attorney along with the counter filed before the High Court. However, when it is specifically stated in the FIR that Munni Devi has executed the power of attorney and thereafter the investigating officer has conducted the investigation and has recorded the statement of the complainant, accused and the independent witnesses, thereafter whether the complainant is having the power of attorney or not is to be considered during trial.
14. In view of the above and for the reasons stated above, the impugned judgment and order [Radhey Shyam Gupta v. State of U.P., 2020 SCC OnLine All 914] passed by the High Court quashing the criminal proceedings in exercise of powers under Section 482 CrPC is unsustainable and the same deserves to be quashed and set aside and is accordingly quashed and set aside. Now, the trial is to be conducted and proceeded further in accordance with law and on its own merits. It is made clear that the observations made by this Court in the present proceedings are to be treated to be confined to the proceedings under Section 482 CrPC only and the trial court to decide the case in accordance with law and on its own merits and on the basis of the evidence to be laid and without being influenced by any of the observations made by us hereinabove. The present appeal is accordingly allowed."
(Emphasis supplied) Therefore, in view of the approval being granted to prosecute the petitioner/accused No.1, the petitions deserve to be rejected 48 leaving open to the petitioners to avail of such remedy, as is available in law at the appropriate time.
12. For the aforesaid reasons, the petitions stand rejected.
I.A.No.4 of 2022 and I.A.No.3 of 2022 filed in respective petitions stand disposed, as having become infructuous.
