Allahabad High Court

VANSHRAJversusSTATE OF U.P. AND ANOTHER

Decided

Holding

The High Court held that there were no grounds to interfere and therefore refused to quash the summoning order and the non‑bailable warrant.

Summary

The applicant filed an application under Section 528 of the Criminal Procedure Code seeking to quash a summoning order dated 19‑02‑2011 and a non‑bailable warrant dated 23‑06‑2024 issued in Criminal Case No. 19/11, which involved offences under Sections 323, 325, 504 and 506 of the IPC. The High Court examined the record and found no sufficient ground to interfere with the lower court's orders. Consequently, the court refused to quash the summoning order or the warrant. However, the court directed the applicant to surrender before the concerned court within three weeks, during which no coercive action would be taken, noting that bail had already been granted and no fresh bond was required. After the three‑week period, the lower court may proceed as per law. The application was therefore disposed of.

Issues considered

  • Whether the High Court can quash the summoning order and the non‑bailable warrant under Section 528 CrPC.
  • Whether there exist sufficient grounds for interference with the proceedings of the lower court.
