Kokkidigadda Sathyanarayana, v. The State Of Andhra Pradesh,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.S.K.JAISWAL CRIMINAL PETITION No.11636 of 2016 ORDER:

The criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.49 of 2016 on the file of the Court of Judicial First Class Magistrate, Mummadivaram, East Godavari District, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 498-A & 312 read with Section 511 IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners/A-2 to A-7 and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, representing the State.

Specific allegations were made against the petitioners in the complaint. The truth or otherwise of the allegations can only be decided during the course of trial. This Court is not supposed to make a roving enquiry into the allegations made in the charge sheet. I see no ground to quash the charge sheet.

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 Court below to proceed with the trial and dispose of CC.No.49 of 2016 within a period of three months from today, however, without insisting for the presence of the petitioners 2 to 6/A-3 to A-7 for each and every adjournment, unless it feels that their physical

presence is necessary for any specific purpose. A-2 shall appear before the Court below during the course of trial.

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