Counsel for the petitioner submit that case FIR No.183 dated

01-11-2007 was registered at his instance against Balwinder Singh,

Chanan Singh and Balwinder Kaur u/s 323/324/325/34 IPC.

Counsel for the petitioners submit that for the same incident,

the complaint has been instituted wherein cross version has been

projected. The grievance of the petitioner is that this complaint is highly

belated as same has been filed after 7 months. The fact of the delay

authenticity of the cross-version are to be examined by the trial Court on

the basis of the evidence adduced by the parties. Therefore the truth and

veracity of the allegations cannot be verified in a petition u/s 482 Cr.P.C.

Present petition cannot be entertained and therefore the

same is dismissed.

Taking into consideration the fact that allegation is of

causing simple injury, personal presence of the petitioners before the trial

Court is exempted subject to filing an undertaking that they shall cause

but in the presence of their counsel, shall be binding upon them. The trial

Court may incorporate any other conditions in the undertaking to be

submitted by the accused.
