Raheem (A.1), who also executed the sale deed in his favour and handed over the link documents in respect of the said plot to him. After some time, the complainant intended to sell the aforesaid property and requested the said Md. Raheem to choose a party therefor. Pursuant to the same, on 1.6.2008 the said Raheem (A.1) called the complainant to Agra Hotel, at Gulzar House to discuss the issue. When the complainant reached the Agra Hotel, the said Raheem (A.1) misbehaved with the complainant, abused him and warned him with dire consequences if he (complainant) goes to the said plot. One Md.Abdulla who is stated to be the friend of Raheem said that he also prepared the fake document of the said plot and shown to him asking to sign on those documents in his favour. He also warned him not to inform about the forged documents to any body including the police. Based on the same, on receipt of the complaint, the first respondent-police registered the crime and took up investigation. The learned Counsel for the petitioner (A.2) submitted that there were some disputes in between the complainant and A.1 and to settle the same, they approached the petitioner (A.2). The learned Counsel for the petitioner denied the meeting siad to have taken place on 1.6.2008 at Agra Hotel, Gulzar House, Hyderabad and on the other hand, he stated that at the relevant point of time, the petitioner (A.2) was in the Mandal Office to attend the local problems he being the Sarpanch of Pahadi Shareef. It is his further contention that the complainant created a false story to exert pressure on the petitioner to mend A.1. On the other hand, the learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that both A.1 and A.2 created forged documents in respect of the plot in question, which is in possession of the second respondent, with an intention to grab the same. Therefore she submitted that there are no valid grounds to quash the crime in question. After going through the contents of the FIR and considering the contentions of the parties, it is clear that specific allegations have been levelled against the petitioner. As per the contents of the FIR, the petitioner is alleged to have prepared forged documents in respect of the plot in question with an intention to grab the said property and thereby warned the complainant not to visit the said plot thereafter. In view of the fact that there are specific allegations made against the petitioner (A.2), and as such, there are absolutely no valid grounds to invoke the inherent powers of this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the crime in question in so far as A.2 is concerned. The Criminal Petition is accordingly dismissed. --------------------------------------------- JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA Dated 28TH September, 2011. Msnro
