GOPAL REDDY AND HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE B.CHANDRA KUMAR WRIT PETITION No. 1548 OF 2009 ORDER: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice A. Gopal Reddy) This is a taken up writ petition on the basis of telegram dated 3.1.2009 sent by the petitioner to the Hon’ble Chief Justice alleging illegal detention of her husband, namely Gaddala Shekanna by the Sub- Inspector of Police, Sarangapur Police Station, Adilabad District. The Superintendent of Police, Adilabad District, 2nd respondent herein filed an affidavit denying the illegal detention of the husband of petitioner. It is stated that the son of the alleged detenu was arrested and produced before the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Nirmal on 19.1.2009 in connection with a petty case in Crime No.1 of 2009. The statement of the alleged detenu recorded by the Tahsildar, Sarangapur Mandal, dated 10.2.2009 is enclosed along with the affidavit which also discloses that the alleged detenu has not been illegally detained, as alleged by the petitioner. The above telegram appears to have been sent by the petitioner to prevent the arrest of her son in connection with Crime No.1 of 2009. We do not see any merits in the contents of the telegram as the alleged detenu is moving freely as per his own statement recorded by the Tahsildar, Sarangapur Mandal. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. _________________ (A. GOPAL REDDY, J.) _______________ (B.CHANDRA KUMAR, J.) FEBRUARY 17, 2009 TSR
