Shaik Ahmed Raziuddin v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL CRIMINAL PETITION No.10657 of 2016

ORDER

The criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in Cr./FIR.No.547/2016 on the file of Banjara Hills Police Station, Hyderabad, registered against the petitioner/accused No.1 for the alleged offences punishable under Sections448, 427, 506, 323 read with 34 IPC.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner/accused No.1 and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, representing the State.

Specific allegations were made against the petitioner in the complaint. 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. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner undertakes to appear before the police station and that he may not be arrested.

In the facts and circumstances of the case and as requested by the learned counsel for the petitioner, the Criminal Petition is disposed of, directing the investigating agency to proceed with the investigation, however, without arresting the petitioner/accused No.1 in the above crime, till the investigation is completed and the charge sheet is filed. The petitioner/accused No.1 shall appear before the investigating agency as and when required during course of investigation. Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed in consequence.
