(2.) THE complainant examined herself under Section 200 Cr. P. C. One Mazahir Hussain was also examined under Section 202 Cr. P. C. Learned Magistrate by means of his order dated 4-2-1993 summoned the petitioner. Prem Kishore Bhargava, Kan haiya Lal Tandon and Pooran Chandra Tandon under Section 120-B, 467 and 419 I. P. C. against which this petition under-Section 482, Cr. P. C. has been preferred seeking quashing of criminal complaint as well as of the summoning order. None appears on behalf of O. P. No. 2 and therefore, this petition is being dis posed of on merits after hearing learned Counsel for the petitioner only. It is at once clear from perusal of the complaint that Smt. Saroj Bhargava O. P. No. 2 who had filed the complaint, simply alleges that Kanhaiya Lal Tandon and Pooran Chandra Tandon had no right to execute sale-deed in favour of Prem Kishore Bhargava and the latter had no right to execute the sale-deed in favour of the petitioner. This is essentially a Civil matter and in case the complainant wants to challenge validity of the sale-deeds, she can take resort to Civil proceedings for cancellation of the same. No criminal case is made out either against the petitioner or against other accused persons. The result is that this petition suc ceeds and is allowed. Criminal complaint filed against O. P. No. 2 and other accused persons' is hereby quashed. Order dated 4-2-1993 passed by learned Magistrate summoning the petitioner and other ac cused persons, is also quashed. Petition allowed. .;
