[Criminal Appeal No.1836 of 2012 arising out of SLP (CRL.) No.3546 of 2012]. [Criminal Appeal No.1834 of 2012 arising out of SLP (CRL.) No.569 of 2012]. [Criminal Appeal No.1835 of 2012 arising out of SLP (CRL.) No. 910 of 2012]. In a proceeding registered as FIR case No. 110/94 (P.S.Connaught Place) charges under different provisions of the Indian Penal Code were framed by the learned Trial Court, inter-alia, against the accused appellants G.K. Bhatt and R.K. Arora. In the revision petition filed before the High Court (Crl. Rev. P. No. 304/2003) for quashing of the charges framed, relief has been denied to the two appellants. However, part relief had been granted to two other accused i.e. Anita Mehra (petitioner in Crl. M.C. No. 2255/2003) and S.K. Khosla (Petitioner in Crl. Rev.P. No.299/2003). While denial of relief by the High Court by the impugned order dated 13th October,2011 has been challenged in the appeals filed by the accused R.K. Arora and G.K. Bhatt, the grant of partial relief to one of the two co-accused i.e. S.K. Khosla has been challenged in the appeal filed by the complainant/ first respondent, Satish Mehra. The facts giving rise to the present appeals may now be noted in some detail. The appellant Satish Mehra and accused Anita Mehra were married sometime in the year 1980. At the relevant point of time they were living in the USA. From about October, 1992, the relations between husband and wife became strained and both were locked in a series of litigations including litigations pertaining to custody of the children born out of the marriage.
