Judgment text as reported

Rai Muhammad Usama VS District Police Officer art. 199---Quashing of FIR---Constitutional jurisdiction of High Court---Scope---Time and again High Court has shown reluctance in interfering in the ongoing investigation process on cherished principle that the functions of Investigating agency and judiciary are complementary and not overlapping and the combination of individual liberty with due observance of law and order can only be achieved if both the organs are allowed to function independently, however, this principle cannot be construed as an absolute bar on the power of High Court in quashing of FIR in cases where the Court is satisfied that investigation is launched with mala fide intention, without jurisdiction or there is no likelihood of the conviction of the accused persons.
