Sarat Kumar Mohanty, v. The State Of Telangana, Rep. By Its Principal Secretary,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO WRIT PETITION No.1091 OF 2017 ORDER:

The writ petition is filed by the petitioner seeking a writ of mandamus declaring the action of the third respondent in registering the complaint being crime No.186 of 2011 for the offences under Section 420, 419, 468, 120-B, 506 IPC as illegal and arbitrary, and consequently to quash the same. Heard and perused the material.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present crime and that he has not committed any offence. Hence, he prays this Court to quash the proceedings against the petitioner.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioner at the threshold. However, taking into consideration the fact that though the crime pertains to 2011, the third respondent has not taken steps to secure the petitioner, and as such, the third respondent is directed to complete the investigation without arresting the petitioner and file final report, if any, in accordance with law. The petitioner is directed to appear before the third respondent and execute a personal bond for a sum of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees twenty thousand only) with one surety for the likesum for his future appearance as and when required for the purpose of investigation.

The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any shall also stand disposed of. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 06.01.2017 pln
