THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL CRIMINAL PETITION No.4688 of 2015 ORDER:

The criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in Cr.No.86 of 2015 of Kulsumpura Police Station, Hyderabad.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, representing the State. Basing on the complaint lodged by the 1st respondent/complainant, the police registered a case against the petitioner/accused for the offences punishable under Sections 506 IPC and under Sec.(3(1) (x) of SC & ST (POA) Act, 1989. The allegations in the complaint, prima facie, reveal the commission of alleged offences by the petitioner. This is a matter, which requires investigation by the police, and there are no valid grounds to quash the First Information Report. In view of 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 in Cr.No.86 of 2015 of Kulsumpura Police Station, Hyderabad.

Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed in consequence.
