Gantela Sarojini , P.S.D. Manoharam v. The State Of Telangana

HONOURABLE SRI J USTICE M.S.K . J AISWAL CRIMINAL PETITION No. 12852 of 2016 ORDER:

The criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings in CC No. 267 of 2016 pending on the file of the learned I Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate, Khammam, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 498-A, 506, 294(b) and 324 IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act.

Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners/Accused 2 to 5, and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, representing the State.

Having heard the learned Counsel on either side and gone through the material available on record, it is obvious that specific allegations were made in the complaint against the petitioners/Accused 2 to 5. The truth or otherwise of the allegations can only be decided during 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 proceedings in the aforesaid Calendar Case.

However, having regard to 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 the aforesaid CC as expeditiously as possible without insisting for the presence of the petitioners/Accused 2 to 5 for each and every adjournment, unless

it feels that their physical presence is necessary for any specific purpose.

The Counsel on record shall represent the petitioners/Accused 2 to 5 before the Court below on each and every day of hearing the case.

Miscellaneous petitions pending consideration if any in the Criminal Petition shall stand closed in consequence. No order as to costs.
