No. 328 of 2007 arising<br \/>\n      out of Hazaribagh Sadar P.S. Case No. 77 of 2007, whereby cognizance of the<br \/>\n      offences has been taken against them along with other co-accused persons.\n<\/p>\n<p>                   Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that after<br \/>\n      investigation, the police has submitted charge sheet against other co-accused<br \/>\n      persons, but so far as these petitioners and one Md. Munif @ Sardar<br \/>\n      Munifuddin Quraishi @ Munif Kasai were concerned, it was stated that there<br \/>\n      were insufficient evidence against them. In spite of the said fact, cognizance<br \/>\n      had been taken by the court below against these petitioners as also against the<br \/>\n      said, Md. Munif @ Sardar Munifuddin Quraishi @ Munif Kasai, whose case<br \/>\n      stands exactly on the similar footing as that of these petitioners. Learned<br \/>\n      counsel has pointed out that said co-accused Md. Munif had filed a quashing<br \/>\n      petition being Cr.M.P. No. 886 of 2008 before this Court, which was allowed<br \/>\n      by order dated 25.2.2009, holding that the court below had no jurisdiction to<br \/>\n      take cognizance against the said petitioner and it was observed that if during the<br \/>\n      trial, any evidence is brought on record, the learned Sessions Judge would be at<br \/>\n      liberty to add him as an accused in exercise of the power under Section 319 of<br \/>\n      the Cr.P.C. Learned counsel has, accordingly, submitted that the case of these<br \/>\n      petitioners stands exactly on the similar footing and has prayed for quashing of<br \/>\n      the order taking cognizance against these petitioners as well.\n<\/p>\n<p>                   Learned A.P.P. though has opposed the prayer, but has very fairly<br \/>\n      conceded that in similar circumstance, the aforesaid order was passed by this<br \/>\n      Court in the case of Md. Munif Kasai.\n<\/p>\n<p>                     In the aforesaid facts and circumstances of this case, I am of the<br \/>\n     considered view that the petitioners are also entitled to the same relief.\n<\/p>\n<p>                  Accordingly, this application is allowed and the cognizance taken<br \/>\n    against these petitioners in Hazaribagh Sadar P.S. Case No. 77 of 2007<br \/>\n    corresponding to G.R. No. 328 of 2007 by the impugned order dated 7.8.2007<br \/>\n    is, hereby, quashed. It goes without saying that if any evidence is brought on<br \/>\n    record against these petitioners in course of the trial, the trial court would be at<br \/>\n    liberty to pass any order in accordance with law, in exercise of the power under<br \/>\n    Section 319 of the Cr.P.C..\n<\/p>\n<p>                                                           ( H.
