It was contended before the High Court by Adv. Mubin Solkar, the Counsel for Mr. Parekh, that the dispute was of a civil nature relating to alleged non-payment for goods delivered and the basic ingredients of the offences of cheating and criminal breach of trust were not made out.

Mr. solkar further contended that the First Informant had converted a purely commercial dispute by giving it a criminal color and got registered a false FIR, which was an abuse of the process of law and misuse of the police machinery.

The Bombay High Court, which had issued notice before admission in the quashing petition in 2013, on Monday quashed the criminal proceedings against Mr. Parekh, holding that prosecuting the accused would be an abuse of process of law.

It also observed that the basic ingredients of cheating and criminal breach of trust were lacking and it was dispute of civil nature, and quashed the entire criminal proceedings.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader Worker Assembly Abu Asim Azmi criticized the statement of Home Minister Amit Shah and said that it is the responsibility of the Home Minister and the Central Government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistani infiltrators. The population of Muslims in India has increased due to Bangladeshis. This is completely wrong. The residents of West Bengal and ordinary Muslims are being targeted under the guise of Bangladeshi and Pakistanis. He said that the government is yours in many states and at the center, so how do Bangladeshi infiltrators enter from the border? What action has the government taken against those who forge their documents so far? He said that targeting Muslims under the guise of Bangladeshi should be stopped, just as Karat Soumya is trying to fake the certificates and documents of every Muslim and is targeting Muslims. He said that the government should pay attention to how Bangladeshi infiltrators infiltrate from the Indian border. This is not the job of Congress, SP or other parties. It is the job of the government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistanis and to bring them to justice. But Muslims should not be harassed or disturbed. He said that action is being taken against those officers who are preparing documents for Bangladeshis.
