THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE P. SWAROOP REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No.4987 OF 2009 ORDER: This Criminal petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. is filed by the petitioners – accused 2 and 3 seeking to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.242 of 2007 on the file of the X Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad, at Neredmet, R.R.District, arising out of Crime No.431 of 2006 of Neredmet Police Station, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 498-A IPC and 4 and 6 of Dowry Prohibition Act. 2. Heard. 3. The allegations in the complaint constitute the offences alleged and there is prima facie material against the petitioners. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that after marriage, the de facto complainant resided with her in-laws (petitioners herein) only for one day and it is impossible to believe that on a single day, such offences are committed by the petitioners. But all these are questions of fact and there is prima facie material available against the petitioners. On the basis of the material on record, it is not a fit case for quashing the proceedings at this stage. However, in view of the nature of allegations and in view of the contention that the de facto complainant lived with the petitioners only for one day, it is directed that the presence of the petitioners shall be dispensed with during trial on appropriate petition being filed for the same. They shall appear at the time of framing of charges, examination under Section 313 Cr.P.C. and judgment. 4. The Criminal Petition is accordingly disposed of. ___________________ P. SWAROOP REDDY, J.
