V.V. Suresh Babu, v. State Of Telangana,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P.KESHAVA RAO WRIT PETITION NO.1980 OF 2015 ORDER:

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents 1 to 5.

The prayer sought in the Writ Petition reads as under:- "...to issue a writ, order or direction more particularly one in the nature of writ of mandamus, declaring the action of the respondents in not considering the representation of the petitioner to the 5th respondent dated 21.01.2014 and the representation dated 04.03.2014 to the respondents 2 to 5 to take action against 6th and 7th respondents is arbitrary, illegal and colourable exercise of power and to issue a consequential direction to the respondents 2 to 5 to take action on the representations/complaints dated 21.01.2014 and 04.03.2014 and to pass such other order/orders which are deemed fit and proper in the circumstances of the case."

During the course of hearing, the learned Government Pleader for Home placed on record the written instructions dated 06.02.2015 issued by the Sub-Inspector of Police, Panjagutta Police Station, Hyderabad City.

A perusal of the said written instructions would indicate that pursuant to the complaint lodged by the sister of the petitioner, a case in Crime No.722 of 2014 for the offences under Sections 506 and 509 of the Indian Penal Code was registered on the file of the Panjagutta Police Station, Hyderabad. When the investigation was in progress, the respondents 6 and 7 herein, who are the wife and husband, have surrendered themselves

before the Investigating Officer along with the fixed deposit bonds with one surety and they were released on bail on 24.10.2014, after completing legal formalities.

After completion of investigation, final report was filed before the XIV Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate at Hyderabad, against the respondents 6 and 7. The learned Magistrate, after taking cognizance of the offences, numbered the case as C.C.No.1413 of 2014. As far as the complaints lodged by the petitioner on 21.01.2014 and 04.03.2014 are concerned, since the allegations made in the complaints prima facie appear to be civil in nature relating to non-payment of rents, no action was taken. Having regard to the said facts, this Court is of the opinion that no further cause would survive in the Writ Petition. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. Miscellaneous applications, if any, pending shall stand dismissed.
