CRL.M.C. No. 333 of 2008
==========================
Dated this the 6th day of February, 2008.
O R D E R
The petitioners, who are accused Nos. 3,4,7 to 9 and 11 in
C.P. No. 171/2007 on the file of the Judicial First Class
Magistrate, Haripad for offences punishable under Sections 147,
148, 341, 321, 323, 324 and 308 IPC r/w Section 149 IPC, seek
to quash the proceedings before the Magistrate.
2. The petitioners have got an effective and alternative
remedy of pleading for a discharge at the time of preliminary
hearing under Section 227 Cr.P.C after the learned Magistrate
commits the case to the Court of Session. Hence, this Court will
be loath to interfere with the matter in a petition under Section
482 Cr.P.C. Leaving the petitioners to the remedy of pleading for
a discharge at the appropriate stage, this Crl. M.C is dismissed.
V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE.
