This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in Crime No.182 of 2016 of Godavarikhani-I Town Police Station, Karimnagar District, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 420, 323 and 506 read with 34 IPC.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner/A.2 and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, representing the State.

Specific allegations were made against the petitioner 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 ground 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 petitioner, the criminal petition is disposed of, directing the investigating agency to proceed with the investigation, however, without arresting the petitioner/A.2 in the above crime, till the investigation is completed and the charge sheet is filed.

The petitioner/A.2 shall appear before the investigating agency as and when required during course

of investigation.

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