M.Naveen Kumar (A1) v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL CRL.P.NO.8117 OF 2016

O R D E R

This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings in FIR.No.163 of 2016 on the file of Keesara Police Station, Cyberabad, Rangareddy District, registered against the petitioners for the offence punishable under Sections 498-A IPC. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the State. A perusal of the complaint reveals that specific allegations were made against the petitioners. This is a matter, which requires investigation by the police. The truth or otherwise of the allegations can only be decided during course of investigation or trial. I see no ground to interdict the investigation at this stage and quash the first information report.

In the facts and circumstances of the case and as requested by the learned counsel for the petitioners, the criminal petition is disposed of, directing the investigating agency to proceed with the investigation, however, without arresting the petitioner Nos.2 to 5 / accused Nos. 2 to 5 in the above crime, till the investigation is completed and the charge sheet is filed. The petitioner Nos.2 to 5 / accused Nos.2 to 5 shall appear before the investigating agency as and when required during course of investigation. Miscellaneous petitions pending if any, shall stand closed. No costs. ------------------------------ M.S.K.JAISWAL,J DATE:15.06.
