THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.6900 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioners – accused 2 and 3 approach this Court by invoking the provisions under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings against them in C.C.No.145 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Miryalaguda, whereby the petitioners are facing trial for the offence punishable under Sections 498(A) IPC and 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the State. The main contention raised by the learned counsel for the petitioners is that the petitioners are Government Servants and further more, A1 married the second respondent, which is admittedly a love marriage. The petitioners are not aware of the said marriage and further more when the marriage is a love marriage, that too, A1 who is the husband of the second respondent fell in love with the 2nd respondent, who is residing at a distance of 200 kms away from the residence of the petitioners herein, the involvement of the petitioners in the said crime is too remote. This Court is of the view that the above contentions are to be decided at the time of trial only and the petitioners are directed to raise all the points before the trial Court and the trial Court is directed to consider the same. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. However, as the offence arises out of matrimonial disputes, where the question of identity of the accused does not arise, the presence of the petitioners before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for the same and they shall properly be represented through their counsel. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ___________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 11.08.2011 Rns
