G.Prasanna Kumar v. The State Of Ap., Through Sho., And Anothers

SMT JUSTI CE T. RAJANI CRI MI NAL PETI TI ON No.7 2 1 0 of 2 0 1 1 ORDER:

The criminal petition is filed for quash of the proceedings in CC.No.10 of 2010 on the file of the Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad. The offences alleged are under Sections 406, 420, 120 (B) of the Indian Penal Code and Section 5 of the A.P. Protection of Depositors of Financial Establishments Act.

2.

Heard the counsel for the petitioner and the learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the first respondent. None appears for the second respondent.

3.

The counsel for the petitioner submits that the other accused, in this case, already approached this Court by way of CRLP.Nos.3738 and 7065 of 2011 and the petitions were dismissed by order dated 28.07.2014. However, the counsel for the petitioner relies on the said order only to seek extension of the same benefit, which was granted to the petitioners therein viz. dispensing with the presence of the petitioner on each and every date of adjournment. In the light of the above, while dismissing the criminal petition on the same grounds on which the earlier petitions were dismissed, the Court below is directed not to insist upon the presence of the petitioner unless it is required for the proceedings. As a sequel, the miscellaneous petitions, if any pending, shall stand closed. __________ T. RAJANI, J August 21, 2018 DSK
