JUDGEMENT
SHRI NARAYAN SHUKLA, J. -
(1.) HEARD Mr. Sudeep Seth, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. Rehan Mubassir, learned counsel for the opposite party no.3 as well as Mr. Rajendra Kumar Dwivedi, learned Additional
Government Advocate for the State.
(2.) THE petitioner has challenged the proceedings of Criminal Case no. 3075 of 2010 pending in the court of Judicial Magistrate III, Lucknow as well as summoning order dated 22.12.2010 passed
therein, whereby he has been summoned for trial under sections 147,504,506,427,384 IPC on the
ground that complainants unauthorised construction has been removed by the district administrative
authorities as well as land development authority, therefore, removal of unauthorised construction by
the district administrative authorities does not create cause of action to initiate criminal proceeding
that too against the petitioner who has no concern with the same, accordingly, it is stated that the
proceeding of criminal case is absolutely abuse of process of court and deserves to be quashed.
In reply, it is stated by the opposite party no.3 (complainant) that the petitioner is in connivance with some other persons, who are interested to grab the petitioners shop, therefore, they initiated
the proceedings under section 133 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before the Additional City
Magistrate III, Lucknow, who passed the order and under the garb of order passed by the
Magistrate man of mussel power by breaking out the door in the wall of Mosque (Maszid) took over
the possession of the petitioners shop, whereas otherside claims that there is direction of waqf
board for opening a second gate. All these are disputed facts , which can be determined on the
basis of evidences adduced by the parties by the trial court , therefore, I do not feel it appropriate to
interfere in the proceedings of court below.
(3.) HOWEVER , keeping in view the action taken by the district administrative authorities, I am of the view that the petitioners application for bail, if it is moved, is liable to be disposed of expeditiously,
therefore, I hereby provide that if on the next date fixed before the court below the petitioner
surrenders before the courts below and moves an application of bail, the same shall be considered
and disposed of expeditiously.;
