498A Summons Quash Judgement 08.02.2023- In this article, the Allahabad High Court held that the wife has leveled general allegations in the FIR without allegations of any specific act against the In-laws, and in the impugned summoning order passed by the magistrate, there is nothing which may indicate that the Magistrate has considered the facts of the case before passing the summoning order against the In-laws, the order clearly lacks application of reflection of judicial mind or discretion. The magistrate has not conducted any inquiry to satisfy himself that the allegations made in the complaint constitute an offense against the In-laws, and the order passed by the Magistrate is cryptic, and it does not stand the test laid down by the court. Therefore, the entire criminal proceedings against the In-laws are hereby quashed.
