HONOURABLE Dr. JUSTICE B.SIVA SANKARA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION No.6455 OF 2015 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioners under Section 482 Cr.P.C seeking to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.279 of 2011 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate, Peddapalli, Karimnagar District, where the learned Magistrate has taken cognizance for the offence punishable under Sections 498-A and 406 I.P.C. and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act.

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Public Prosecutor (Telangana) for the State before notice to respondent No.2 and before admission. Perused the material on record.

As the material falls short for this Court to admit the application under Section 482 Cr.P.C., this application is disposed of giving liberty to the petitioners to file an application under Section 239 Cr.P.C. if no grounds to frame charge. Needless to say in the event of framing of any charge from any of the penal sections, then remedy is left open to the petitioners. Needless to say, if any application is filed to represent one accused on behalf of other accused under Rule 37 of Criminal Rules of Practice, the learned Magistrate shall hear and permit with necessary conditions. As the case is of the year, 2011, the learned Magistrate is directed to dispose of the same as expeditiously as possible.

Accordingly, this criminal petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions pending if any, shall stand closed.
