What did the court decide?
Since charges were framed against the applicant under Section 228 Cr.P.C. and trial had commenced during the pendency of the Section 482 application (P.W.1 having deposed), the prayer for quashing the charge sheet, cognizance order and proceedings has been rendered infructuous. ¶13
