This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 of Criminal Procedure Code (for short "Cr.P.C.") to quash the proceedings in Cr.No38 of 2017 on the file of Women U/G Police Station, Kadapa, A.P., registered for the offences punishable under Sections 498-A r/w 34 IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of DP Act.

Learned counsel for the petitioners/A.2 to A.7 after arguing for sometime, requested this Court to direct the police to follow the procedure laid down by the Apex Court in Rajesh Sharma v. State of U.P1.

Acceding to the request of the learned counsel for the petitioners, without touching the merits, I find that it is a fit case to issue direction to the police to follow the procedure laid by the Apex Court in Rajesh Sharma v. State of UP (referred supra). Accordingly, the Police concerned are directed to adhere to the guidelines issued in Rajesh's case ( referred supra). With the above direction, this Criminal Petition is disposed of.

Consequently, miscellaneous applications pending if any, shall stand closed.
