. Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and learned counsel appearing for the State.

The First Information Report of Ichak P.S. Case No.188 of 2012 [corresponding to G.R. No.4126 of 2012] registered under Sections 379, 411 of the Indian Penal Code and also under Section 21 of the M.M.R.D. Act as well as under Section 54 of Jharkhand Minor Mineral Concession Rules, 2004 and also under Section 21 of the Pollution and Environment Protection Act, is being sought to be quashed on the ground that no such allegation is there against the petitioner which attracts offences under which case has been registered.

The case has been lodged on the allegation that several persons named in the F.I.R. including the petitioner were found running or establishing crusher machines without having licence under the Factories Act or permission from Pollution Control Board. The matter is under investigation. It is for the Investigating Officer to find out as to whether the petitioner was involved in the illegal offence or not.

In that view of the matter, I do not find it a fit case for quashing of the First Information Report. and accordingly, this petition stands dismissed.
