Case brief
What is this about?
Karnataka HC (Bengaluru), NC: 2026:KHC:14486, CRL.P No. 1636 of 2026, M. Nagaprasanna J., decided 11-03-2026. Quashing petition under S. 482 Cr.PC / S. 528 BNSS against charge sheet in SC No.140/2025 (CR No.24/2025, Kyasamballi P.S.; offences under ss. 64(2)(m), 115(2), 351(2), 352 BNS 2023). Consensual-relationship plea not entertained at post-framing/evidence stage; petition disposed with liberty to urge contentions before trial court. Keywords: quashing refused after framing of charges; consensual acts; BNS 2023; disposed.
What did the court decide?
Since charges have already been framed, it is for the petitioner to urge all contentions and produce all material before the concerned (trial) court at the appropriate time; the quashing petition is not entertained on that basis. ¶34
