Mr Nazim Noor Mohammed v. State of Karnataka
Case brief
What is this about?
Non-prosecution dismissal, High Court of Karnataka, 02-07-2026, Justice Ravi V Hosmani; CRL.P No.6634/2019 under S.482 Cr.P.C.; petitioner Nazim Noor Mohammed (counsel Sri Pramod Nair) absent on successive occasions; sought quashing of charge sheet dated 23.06.2014 in FIR No.316/2012 and proceedings in C.C.No.52299/2015 before XI Addl.C.M.M., Bengaluru, alleging offences under Ss.504, 506, 114 IPC r/w S.66(A) Information Technology Act; respondents: State of Karnataka (K.G. Halli Police Station; Smt. Sowmya R., HCGP) and Ahmed Sait (Sri Amith Mandgi); no merits adjudicated, no precedent engaged — citable only as an instance of dismissal for non-prosecution, not for any substantive position on quashing or the IT Act/IPC provisions.
What did the court decide?
The petition is dismissed for non-prosecution: none appeared for the petitioner, there was likewise no representation on the previous occasion when the matter was adjourned with a caution that appropriate orders would follow on continued absence, and the absence indicates the petitioner is not pursuing the petition diligently. The merits of the quashing prayer were not adjudicated.
