Sampath Raj Sony v. The State Of Andhra Pradesh,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL CRL.P.NO.8990 OF 2016

O R D E R

This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in Crime No.92 of 2016 on the file of Police Station, Madanapalle Taluk, Chittoor District, A.P., registered against the petitioners/ accused Nos.1 and 2, for the offences punishable under Sections 420 and 506 read with 34 IPC.

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners/accused Nos.1 and 2 and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, representing the State. Specific allegations were made against the petitioners 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 grounds to interdict the investigation at this stage and quash the first information report. In the facts and circumstances of the case and as requested by the learned counsel for the petitioners, the criminal petition is disposed of, directing the investigating agency to proceed with the investigation. However, for a period of two months from today, the petitioners/accused Nos.1 and 2, shall not be arrested.

Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed. No costs.
