FIR quashing case pending can police arrest me


30-Apr-2023 (In Criminal Law)

A false criminal case is pending in lucknow against me and i have already filled for quashing in the high court. I am now going to lucknow from mumbai but the quashing is still pending. Is there any threat to my liberty if I go to lucknow. Can i go to the police myself and present an application explaining my purpose of visit. Please help as I am afraid that i might get arrested in lucknow.

See first of all it depends on the offences for which FIR being filed.is it bailable or non bailable and compoundable or non compoundable and police can arrest you if the offence is grave and till the court where you filed for quashing an FIR grant you the leave.for any further assistance you can please contact me.

Sir advisable to you that you should proceed with the pending writ of FIR quashing. Further your query is not so clear but if your case is one in which the maximum punishment may be awrded, you should not be worried as you will get benefit of the ratio of the judgement passed in the very case of Arnesh Kumar vs. State Of Bihar.

Yes , as there is no order by the High Court for Quashing the FIR and it is still pending you can be arrested - ot also depends on the nature of the offence though, Dont go to police for giving the application you will be arrested then n there if your offence is critical. Ideally you should have also applied for stay along with FIR Quashing application.
