NEW DELHI: Delhi high court on Monday sought the
stand
of the
AAP government
on a plea by
Sir Ganga Ram Hospital
seeking
quashing
of an FIR lodged against it for allegedly violating Covid-19 regulation norms.
Justice C Hari Shankar issued notice to the state government and listed the matter for August 11, even as it agreed to examine on Tuesday, the plea for an interim stay on the investigation and further proceedings.
The hospital has sought quashing of an FIR, lodged on June 5 at Rajinder Nagar police station, under Section 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) of the IPC and the proceedings initiated later.
Its plea said the FIR was "nothing but a gross and patent abuse of process of law and is liable to be quashed to secure the ends of justice."
