T. Vishnu Chakravarthi, v. The State Of Andhra Pradesh Rep. By Principal Secretary

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO WRIT PETITION No.36791 of 2016 ORDER:

The writ petition is filed by the petitioner seeking a writ of mandamus declaring the action of the third respondent in registering the case in crime No.213 of 2016 on the file of the third respondent as illegal and arbitrary, and consequently to quash the same.

Heard and perused the material.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the complaint is lodged without any valid grounds and that the same is lodged only to harass the petitioner and as such, he prays this Court to quash the same. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings at the threshold. However, taking into consideration the fact that the case is arising out of a transaction with regard to purchase of land 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 also directed to appear before the investigating agency as and when required.

The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any shall also stand disposed of. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 31.10.2016 pln
