[31] The inherent extraordinary power of Section-482 of the Code cannot be invoked. Section-482 of Cr. P.C. is as under:

"482. Saving of inherent powers of High Court. Nothing in this Code shall be deemed to limit or affect the inherent powers of the High Court to make such orders as may be necessary to give effect to any order under this Code, or to prevent abuse of the process of any Court or otherwise to secure the ends of justice."

[33] The FIR dated 09.08.2021 reveals the name of six accused persons who were being charge-sheeted after an investigation sanctioned under Section-155 of the Cr. P.C. as per order dated 10.08.2021 as the present case being that of a non-cognizable offence. Thus, on jurisdictional issue, no case has been made out justifying invocation of the inherent power of this Court under Section-482 of Cr. PC. Both the FIRs and the charge-sheet involve six accused persons while a lone petitioner has filed the petition praying for quashing of the entire proceeding. Their legal rights are not infringed by registering the FIR.
