Quashing of the FIR under S.482 is done by the High Court to prevent the abuse of the process of law, this power can be exercised where the proceedings are initiated with a view to settle scores and personal vendetta, if the allegations in the FIR even if taken at their face value fail to make out the ingredients of offence concerned, or where it is patently filed with mala fide intentions. These are some of the grounds on which High Court would proceed to quash. It is exercised in exceptional cases, and normally High Court does not interfere and readily stop a prosecution at the investigational stages. The high court won't have a look at anything but the FIR and other evidences of unimpeachable genuinity. Quashing proceedings are not meant to be trials.
