Sreenivasulu Y Pamidi v. The State Of Telangana.,Rep.,Pp

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Criminal Petition No.581 of 2016 ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash proceedings initiated against the petitioner/A-1 in C.C.No.252 of 2012 pending on the file of XIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, at Hyderabad arising out of Crime No.1256 of 2009 registered for the offences punishable under Section 498 A and Section 3 and 4 of Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard and perused the material on record.

The offences alleged against the petitioners are punishable under Sections 498 A IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act.

Admittedly, after duly investigating into the complaint lodged by the de facto complainant, the Police filed charge sheet against the petitioner and other accused. A reading of charge sheet also reveals some allegations against the petitioners, truth of which can be decided only after due trial. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the proceedings against the petitioner/A-1.

In any event, considering the nature of allegations wherein the question of identity of the accused does not arise and in view of the fact that the petitioner/A-1 is residing at USA due to his employment, the presence of the petitioner/A-1 before the trial Court is dispensed with except on the dates of framing of charges and also for examination under Section 313 Cr.P.C. However, A4, who is stated to be the father of A-1, the petitioner herein, shall appear before the trial Court on his behalf and also on behalf of the

petitioner/A-1 on all hearing dates.

Subject to the above direction, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending, shall stand closed.
