THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.13365 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioners approach this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings against them in Crime No.328 of 2010 of Central Crime Police Station, Hyderabad, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 120-B, 417, 420, 498-A, 494, 493 read with 406 IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. 2. Heard. 3. The matter is still at the stage of investigation. The complaint under Section 200 Cr.P.C. filed by the de facto complainant, which is forwarded to the police, clearly reveals specific allegations against the petitioners-accused. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the investigation at this stage. 4. After arguing for some time, learned counsel for the petitioners-accused withdrawing the main prayer, confined his arguments requesting the court to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the court below. 5. Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and also the circumstances of the case, this Court is inclined to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the trial court. 6. Accordingly, the presence of the petitioners-accused before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for their appearance and they shall be properly represented through their counsel. 7. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. ________________ RAJA ELANGO, J. 28th February 2011, Rns.
