Based on these&nbsp; complaints, the First Informant Report (FIR) was filed against him.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:16px\">Dave&nbsp; argued that not a single victim of&nbsp; the &ldquo;alleged&rdquo; extortion had come forward to file a&nbsp; complaint against him. He also contended that the offence of criminal breach of trust was not made out, as&nbsp; there was no entrustment of property.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\">Court Questions FIR Registration:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\">The bench expressed shock over the manner in which the FIR had been registered, observing that the allegations appeared to be a &ldquo;mere story.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\">&nbsp;Justice Mehta remarked:&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:16px\">&quot;We are shocked at the manner in which the FIR was registered. Your Investigating Officer should have made an inquiry. He should have confirmed the allegations and then the FIR should have been registered. Lalita Kumari [case] is applicable to everyone. Which particular allegation of extortion, which particular offense of misuse of his position in the company was setout in the FIR and in the complaint, which required the police station concerned to immediately go for registration of FIR? Without there being any allegation at all! It&#39;s all story &#8211; all a fictional story&quot;,<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:16px\">Justice Nath further said, &quot;As vague as possible&#8230;all kind of omnibus allegations that he has done this this this&#8230;&quot;,<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:16px\">&ldquo;Is This James Bond?&rdquo;: Court Slams Police<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:16px\">The bench further asked if this is James Bond stating that &#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\">&quot;A common citizen &#8211; if he goes to the police station &#8211; would you register such an FIR? This FIR contained nothing! Simply because complainant happens to be an influential agency, you registered the FIR just like that! We are making serious comments on the conduct of the Rajasthan police, if you want. What is this FIR? Common citizen if he goes to the police station &#8211; he will be thrown out for such allegations. It is a fact you can&#39;t deny. [The complainant] was such a privileged [person] that for him, the police opens red carpets&#8230;register FIR without there being anything! This is James Bond?

He said that&nbsp; the Complainant had received several complaints from builders, doctors and others&nbsp; alleging&nbsp; extortion. He also pointed out&nbsp; that not even a single &ldquo;victim&rdquo; had been named in the FIR.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n \n \n <p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif\">The Court quashed the FIR.
