THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.13037 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioners/A-2 to A-6 approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against them in Crime No.98 of 2011 on the file of the Women Police Station, C.C.S., Hyderabad, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 498-A, 323 and 506 read with 34 IPC and Sections 4 and 6 of Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard. On a perusal of the records, it is seen that there are some allegations against the petitioners herein. But at the same time, since the offences arise out of matrimonial disputes, if the petitioners are arrested, it may cause prejudice in case there is any proposal for settlement between the parties in future. Hence, the investigating officer is directed to complete the investigation of the case without making arrest of the petitioners herein. The Criminal Petition is accordingly disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this criminal petition shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 14.12.2011 v v
