HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION NO.9269 OF 2010 DATE: 17.09.2010 BETWEEN: K.Ch.Krishna Rao and others .. Petitioners And Gaddam Mani and another ` .. Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION NO.9269 OF 2010 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings in Crime No.91 of 2010 of Thulluru Police Station, Guntur District. I have heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and the learned Public Prosecutor for the State. According to the prosecution about 15 days prior to the incident, the husband of the first respondent took an amount of Rs.3,000/- from the petitioner and did not attend the work. Subsequently, on 21.07.2010, the deceased and the first respondent were called and A1 and A2 abused them in filthy language and beat them with hands, then the first respondent ran away from the place. After some time, near the bank centre, they beat the deceased and abused him. Because of the incident, the deceased felt humiliated thinking that the entire village will know about the incident, he consumed pesticide poison and he was shifted to the hospital in 108 Ambulance and from there he was shifted to Government General Hospital, Vijayawada and he was discharged on 26.07.2007 and again he became sick and was shifted to Government General Hospital, Guntur and ultimately on 02.08.2010 the deceased died. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would submit that even if the entire incident is believed, the ingredients of the offence punishable under Section 306 of IPC are not attracted and all the proceedings in Crime No.91 of 2010 which was registered regarding the above mentioned incident against the petitioners have to be quashed and also sought stay of all further proceedings. Considering all aspects of the matter, I am of the considered view that it cannot at this stage be said that the offence punishable under Section 306 IPC is not attracted. Prima facie it is disclosed from the allegations in the complaint. Only after the entire material is gathered by the investigating agency, the circumstances leading to commission of committing suicide by the deceased will come into light. Therefore, it is not appropriate to quash the proceedings or stay the investigation which is in progress. For the foregoing reasons, I absolutely see no merit in the petition and accordingly dismiss the criminal petition. _______________ R.KANTHA RAO,J Date: 17.09.2010 kvrm HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO CRIMINAL PETITION NO.9269 OF 2010 DATE: 17.09.2010
