THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.8176 OF 2010 Dated 13th April, 2010 Between: Donuri Ravinder Reddy …Petitioner And The Commissioner of Police, Hyderabad and another. …Respondents Counsel for the petitioner : Sri Raja Gopallavan Tayi Counsel for the respondents: AGP for Home The Court made the following: Order: This Writ Petition is filed for a Mandamus to declare the inaction of the respondents, in removing the petitioner’s name from Look Out Circular (for short ‘LOC’) and withdrawing the Red Corner Notices issued in connection with Crime No.206 of 2007 of respondent No.2- Police Station, as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioner is accused No.4 in C.C.No.891 of 2007 on the file of the Judicial I Class Magistrate, Miryalaguda, Nalgonda District. The said case was taken cognizance for offences under Section 498-A of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961. Seeking quashing of the said proceedings, the petitioner filed Crl.P.No.7257 of 2008. According to the petitioner, this Court granted interim stay of all further proceedings in his favour in the said case and that the same is pending. Feeling aggrieved by inclusion of his name in LOC and issuing Red Corner Notices, the petitioner filed the present Writ Petition. After hearing the learned Counsel for the petitioner, I am of the view that the petitioner has invoked a wrong remedy by filing this Writ Petition. This Court is already seized of the proceedings initiated under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (for short ‘the Cr.P.C.’), wherein the sustainability or otherwise of the prosecution against the petitioner is in question. In my opinion, in the face of the accusations made against the petitioner, whether issuance of LOC and Red Corner Notices was legal, valid and proper or not requires to be examined in the said proceedings. There can be no reason for splitting the cases and invoking the jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, when the petitioner has already invoked the jurisdiction of this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C. In this view of the matter, the Writ Petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to seek appropriate relief in the proceedings pending under Section 482 Cr.P.C. As a sequel to dismissal of the Writ Petition, WPMP No.10511 of 2010 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J Dated 13th April, 2010 lur
