                                           Versus

                                        -----------

2/ 30.11.2010 Heard the parties.

The petitioner has sought quashing of the order dated

16.11.2009 by which the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Gaya, has taken

cognizance under section 380 Indian Penal Code in Civil Lines P.S.

case no.40 of 2009.

It has been submitted that from the First Information

Report itself it appears that apart from suspicion there is no cogent

material against him.

I am unable to appreciate that cognizance cannot be taken

only on the basis of suspicion.

The application is dismissed.

     JA/-                                                   (Anjana Prakash, J.)
