Quashing of chargesheet

we are residents of Delhi My father, brother and I has been falsely implicated under 498-A/406 sections and FIR has been lodged at remote area of Haryana and we has been given A.B and then regular bail. Then I the sole petitioner( being brother in law of bride) filed the criminal miscallneous petition before Punjab and Haryna high court for quashing of my FIR and notices of motion was issued in 15 th october for next date falling in early week of December.

Mean while police has filed the challan against all of the three on 9/11/2012 I and my other 2 family members challenged the challan/chargesheet by the way of filing fresh criminal miscallneous Main petition for quashing the chargesheet by challenging the territorial jurisdiction of the criminal court of haryana along with interim prayer of stay..I has the version as the alleged cuase of action/offences has taken place in delhi so ld magistrate didn't have the cognisance to try the case falling outside the jurisdiction But the High court didn't accept my version and instead of providing relief, I was advised to withdraw the second petition and to file the miscallneous petition for stay of proceedings in the main petition which the court already issued NOM and directed me to withdraw the petition

i have already filed the mISCALLNEOUS pettition and my query is that if the proceedings are stayed then my other family members will not get the final relief as I was the only sole petitioner in that case In that case whether I need to file the separate petition for quashing of proceedings for rest of my family members? The Hon'ble Judge has remarked that if it stayed then other family members too get the relief..?? Whether issue of territorial jurisdiction will not be resolved??

Allegations are very much vague agisnt all of 3..Since I am brother in law, I have already filed criminal main petition for quashing of FIR (befoe filng of chargeshheet) and Notices were issued..And when Police file the chargesheet, I filed another Criminal Main petition in which other 2 faMILY members joined as petitioners for quashing of chargesheet on the basis of terrtotrial jurisdiction which was not considered and I had to withdraw the petition with liberirty to file the Miscallneous petition in the previous Main petition for stay on the proceedings


If the proceedings are stayed definately all of us will get the reilef..but I final relief will be granted to me as I only filed the petition in my name for quashing of FIR..In such case, if I have already withdraw my second criminal main petition for quashing of chargesheet, how other 2 will get the relief??

It was always better to file one writ petition in the high court for quashing....you can try joinder of other members

Dear Sir, Quashing of Petition should have been filed along with stay application. You can file quashing of FIR,but not chargesheet.Probably yes,if FIR is quashed then all of you would get the permanent relieft.However,till the disposal of main petition of FIR quashing,file for stay on the proceedings.
