M/S.Jayageeth Contractors v. The State Of Telangana.,Rep.,Pp

THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.1872 OF 2016 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure (Cr.P.C.) to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.835 of 2015 on the file of the XXV Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad, at Kukatpally, arising out of an offence under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Heard.

The grounds raised by the learned counsel for the petitioners are necessarily to be tried by the trial Court. Hence, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings at this stage. However, as the question of identity of the accused does not arise, the presence of the petitioners before the trial Court is dispensed with except on the dates when the trial Court insists for their appearance. The petitioners are directed to be represented by a counsel on all hearing dates. The Criminal Petition is accordingly disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending, shall stand closed.
