7. High Court under section 561-A of the Code (sec. 482 of the Central
Code) is vested with inherent jurisdiction to make such order as
may be necessary to give effect to any order under the Code or to
prevent abuse of process of any Court or otherwise to secure the
ends of justice. This jurisdiction of the High Court can be invoked
to seek quashing of FIR and investigation by the police or any
criminal proceedings pending in any Court if it is shown to the
satisfaction of the Court that such proceedings is the abuse of
process of that Court or tends to cause miscarriage of justice or the
quashing is otherwise required to secure the ends of justice. The
jurisdiction of the High Court is vast indeed but it is well settled that
this jurisdiction is to be exercised cautiously, carefully and
sparingly and the Court has not to function as a Court of appeal or
revision. Supreme Court in State of Haryana v Bhajan Lal, AIR
1992 SC 604, has given categories of cases by way of illustration
wherein such power can be used either to prevent the abuse of
process of Court or to secure the ends of justice. The categories
given by the Honble Apex Honble Court are:
Section 482 in The Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 [Entire Act]
The Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973
