O R D E R

As per the overt act attributed, the petitioner herein was arrayed as the tenth accused, stating that when one of the accused had not conducted the pre-audit, the petitioner herein, who was the General Manager had not taken any further action on the same. Owing to this, there has occurred a loss to the society. In identical circumstances, the third accused Sripathi, who had challenged the same enquiry proceedings in C.C.No.453 of 2016 in Crl.O.P.No.17100 of 2017, this Court had quashed the proceedings by an order dated 23.09.2019, insofar as it relates to the petitioner therein, by taking into account the overt act attributed to that accused. Since the overt act attributed to the petitioner herein is also one and the same, this Court is inclined to extend the same relief to the petitioner. 2.In the light of the above, the impugned charge sheet in C.C.No.453 of 2016 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate-II, Vellore, Vellore District, in so far as it relates to the petitioner herein is quashed.
