Popatlal Deepchand Odhekar v. the State of Maharashtra and Anr.
Case brief
What is this about?
A criminal application under Section 482 CrPC was dismissed as not maintainable. The court held that the application for discharge filed by the applicant after the charge sheet is pending and requires priority due to the applicant's health and age; thus, the quashing plea is postponed with merits kept open.
What did the court decide?
Quashing of the FIR was not granted due to the pendency of the application for discharge.
