    Case Summary: The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir dismissed the petition challenging FIR No. 61/2026 against the petitioners for alleged assault, abuse, wrongful restraint, and tearing clothes. The court held that since the FIR allegations prima facie disclose cognizable offences under BNSS 2023, the investigating agency must proceed with investigation and the court cannot interfere under Section 528 BNSS, even if a civil dispute exists between parties.
