Shashidhar Aadiraaju v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE M.S.K.JAI SWAL CRI MI NAL PETI TI ON No.13059 of 2016 ORDER:

The criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in Cr.No.564 of 2016 of Panjagutta P.S, Hyderabad City, registered for the offences punishable under sections 120b, 406 and 420 IPC.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner/A2 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. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the Criminal Petition is disposed of, directing the investigating agency to proceed with the investigation, however, without arresting the petitioner/A2 in the above crime, till the investigation is completed and the charge sheet is filed. The petitioner/A2 shall cooperate with the investigating agency and shall make himself available as and when required during course of investigation.

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