Act.   Cognizance<\/p>\n<p>has   been   taken   by   the   learned   Magistrate.     Accused   3   and   4   have<\/p>\n<p>come before this Court with Crl.R.P.411 of 2007 complaining about<\/p>\n<p>the   cognizance   taken,   whereas   the   5th  accused   has   come   with<\/p>\n<p>Crl.M.C. 415 of 2007 with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated<\/p>\n<p>against him.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>       2.  The crux of the allegations is that the first accused firm had<\/p>\n<p>issued   a   cheque   to   the   respondent\/complainant.     That   cheque   was<\/p>\n<p>signed by the second accused Managing Partner of the firm.  Accused<\/p>\n<p>3, 4 and 5 are alleged to be the Partners of the firm.  In paragraph 1 of<\/p>\n<p>the   complaint   there   is   an   assertion   that   the   second   accused   in   his<\/p>\n<p>capacity as Managing Parter of the first accused &#8220;with the knowledge<\/p>\n<p>and consent of other accused issued the cheque in question.&#8221;       The<\/p>\n<p>petitioners pray that invoking the revisional jurisdiction of this Court,<\/p>\n<p>if   not   the   extra   ordinary   inherent   jurisdiction   under   Section   482<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.No. 411 of 2007 &amp;<\/p>\n<p>Crl.M.C.No.  415 of   2007<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                             2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Cr.P.C.,  proceedings initiated against the petitioners may be quashed in as<\/p>\n<p>much   as   the   complaint   does   not   contain   the   requisite   crucial   and   vital<\/p>\n<p>averments to attract culpability under Section 141 of the N.I. Act.  Counsel<\/p>\n<p>for accused 3 to 5 rely on the decision in <a href=\"\/doc\/1302578\/\">S.M.S. Pharmaceuticals Ltd.  v.<\/p>\n<p>Neeta Bhalla<\/a>   (2005 (4) KLT 209 (SC).   In as much as the necessary and<\/p>\n<p>vital averments are not there, the prosecution is liable to be quashed.   This<\/p>\n<p>in short is the plea raised.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>       3.  Of course, a contention is raised that the Partners have ceased  to<\/p>\n<p>be Partners  on  the relevant date.  That question cannot be considered  with<\/p>\n<p>the materials presently available.   The parties will have to be   relegated to<\/p>\n<p>raise those contentions at the stage of trial.   The crucial question that falls<\/p>\n<p>for   determination   is   whether   the   complaint   deserves   to   be   quashed   and<\/p>\n<p>cognizance deserves to be set aside for the reason that   there is no crucial<\/p>\n<p>averment as insisted by the dictum in S.M.S. Pharmaceuticals  Ltd.<\/p>\n<p>       4.  Except that  they are Partners and the Managing Partner had issued<\/p>\n<p>the cheque on behalf of the firm &#8220;with the knowledge and consent&#8221; of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners   herein   there   is   no   other   averment   whatsoever   against   the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nCrl.R.P.No. 411 of 2007 &amp;<\/p>\n<p>Crl.M.C.No.  415 of   2007<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                 3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        5.  The learned counsel for the complainant was requested to explain<\/p>\n<p>how  these  averments  can  be  held  to  be sufficient  to  attract  penal  liability<\/p>\n<p>under Section  141  of the  N.I. Act   read in  the light  of the decision    cited<\/p>\n<p>supra.     The   learned   counsel   for   the   complainant   contends   that   ritualistic<\/p>\n<p>insistence on repetition and re-iteration of the words of the   Statute  under<\/p>\n<p>Section   141  need   not   be   insisted.         I am  in   agreement     with   the   learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel.  Such insistence need not be made.    Is there any averment which<\/p>\n<p>would  satisfy the requirement of Section 141?  That is the crucial question<\/p>\n<p>and   that   question   has   got   to   be   answered   against   the   complainant   in   the<\/p>\n<p>light   of   the   only   averment   to   which   I   have   already   referred   to.     That   the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners   are   Partners   and   that   the   Managing   Partner   had   issued   the<\/p>\n<p>cheque   &#8220;with   the   knowledge   and   consent&#8221;   of   the   petitioners   is     certainly<\/p>\n<p>insufficient to attract culpability under Section 141.  The dictum  in S.M.S.<\/p>\n<p>Pharmaceuticals   Ltd.  remains   totally   unsatisfied   by   the   specific<\/p>\n<p>averments,  which I have referred to above.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>        6.     It   follows   that   the   petitioners   are   entitled   to     succeed.     These<\/p>\n<p>petitions are in these circumstances allowed.
