Mohammed Pasha Miya , Mahammad Ibrahim v. The State Of Telangana And Another

HONOURABLE JUSTICE G. SRI DEVI CRIMINAL PETITION NO.561 OF 2020 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (Cr.P.C.) seeking quashing of investigation in Crime No.31 of 2020 of P.S. Moinabad, Cyberabad District, registered against the petitioner/A-2 for the offences punishable under Section 336 of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 25(1)(A) and 27 of the Arms Act and Section 11 of Prevention of Cruelty to Animal Act. Though the learned counsel for the petitioner/A-2 filed the present petition for quashing of investigation in Crime No.31 of 2020, he restricts his prayer seeking a direction to the Investigating agency to follow the procedure prescribed under Section 41-A of the Cr.P.C. and the guidelines prescribed by the Apex Court in Arnesh Kumar v. State of Bihar and another1.

Learned Additional Public Prosecutor would submit that the directions of the Apex Court have to be followed and implemented. In that view of the matter, the Criminal Petition is disposed of directing the police to abide by the directions of the Apex Court as set out in Arnesh Kumar case (supra).

Miscellaneous applications, if any, pending shall stand closed. _________________ (G. SRI DEVI, J) 27th January 2020 RRB 1 AIR 2014 SC 2756
