Gulla Santhi Lakshmi v. The State Of A.P

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY CRIMINAL PETITION NO.11489 OF 2017 ORDER:

This petition is filed under Section 482 of Criminal Procedure Code (for short "Cr.P.C.") to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.403 of 2017 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate, Tiruvuru. Sri Suresh Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioners after arguing the matter for sometime, requested this Court to direct the Court below to follow the procedure laid down by the Apex Court in "Rajesh Sharma v. State of U.P.1"

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 Court below to follow the procedure laid by the Apex Court in "Rajesh Sharma v. State of U.P." (referred supra). Accordingly, police concerned are directed to adhere to the guidelines issued in "Rajesh Sharma v. State of U.P." (referred supra). With the above direction, the criminal petition is disposed of. No costs.

Consequently, miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall also stand closed.
