This writ petition is taken up on the basis of a letter, dated 06.06.2006, addressed to the Hon’ble the Chief Justice, High Court of Andhra Pradesh, by one B.Mehrunbi complaining that on 24.05.2006, at about 9 p.m., the villagers of Parlapadu Village by name Kasi Reddy Mohan Reddy and 7 others have trespassed into their house and caused grievous injuries to her husband by name Badugugalla Karnal Basha by beating him and further apprehending that a criminal case would be lodged against them, they threw away her husband somewhere. The search for her husband proved to be in vain. Subsequently, on 26.05.2006, she lodged a complaint before the Police, Rajupalem Police Station, Kadapa District, but no action has been taken thereon. 3. After receiving notice from this Court, the first respondent-Sub-Inspector of Police, Rajupalem Police Station, Rajupalem Mandal, Kadapa District, filed counter-affidavit stating, inter alia, that the husband of the complainant by name Badugugalla Karnal Basha is an accused in Crime No.23 of 2006 of Rajupalem Police Station for the offences punishable under Sections-324, 506 read with 34 I.P.C., which was registered on a complaint given by one Kasi Reddy Mohan Reddy; that since the date of commission of the said offences, the husband of the petitioner is absconding and the investigation is pending in the said crime. It is further stated that the petitioner had lodged a complaint in their Police Station on 27.05.2006 alleging that one Kasi Reddy Mohan Reddy and seven others, who are the residents of Parlapadu Village of Rajupalem Mandal, Kadapa District, have threatened her and her husband, abused them in filthy language and beat them indiscriminately. It is further stated that the injured was sent to the Government Hospital at Proddutur for treatment and after obtaining the wound certificate, a case in Crime No.56 of 2006 was registered for the offences punishable under Sections- 143, 323, 506 read with 34 I.P.C., and investigation was taken up. 4. It is further pointed out in the counter affidavit that the petitioner never alleged that the persons mentioned in her letter, dated 06.06.2006, have taken away her husband. However, a case was registered against the husband of the petitioner in Crime No.23 of 2006 and since the husband of the petitioner is required in the said crime, intensive search is taken up. Further, it is the suspicion of the Police that in order to divert the attention of the investigating officer, the present letter, dated 06.06.2006 was sent to this Court. 5. In view of the aforesaid statements made in the counter affidavit, more particularly in view of the fact that investigation is pending in both Crime Nos.23 and 56 of 2006 of Rajupalem Police Station, which were registered against the husband of the petitioner and pursuant to the complaint lodged by the petitioner, respectively, we do not feel that any further directions be issued in this writ petition. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition is closed, at the stage of admission. _______________ D.S.R.VARMA, J ____________________ P.SWAROOP REDDY, J 29.06.2006 DR
