HON'BLE DR. JUSTICE B. SIVA SANKARA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8468 of 2017 ORDER:

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner/accused No.1 in crime No.483 of 2017 of Women Police Station, Hyderabad, registered for the offences punishable under Section 498-A IPC and Sections 3 & 4 of Dowry Prohibition Act, and also learned Public Prosecutor representing the State.

In view of the order of this Court dated 31.07.2017 in Crl.P.No.6493 of 2017 relying upon the latest two Judge Bench expression of the Apex Court in Rajesh Sharma & Others Vs. State of U.P. & Another1, this is a fit case to refer the matter to the Committee for report to consider any reconciliation. Having regard to the above and as per the directions of the Apex Court, the Criminal Petition is disposed of while directing the Investigation Officer to investigate, but not to arrest the petitioner unless report of the Committee on its constitution is received, however this does not prevent the securing for interrogation as part of investigation.

Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed. _____________________________________ JUSTICE Dr. B.SIVA SANKARA RAO Date: 12.10.2017 ska 1 2017 (2) ALT (Crl.) 393 (SC)
