In response to notice, the Sub-Inspector of Police, Hathnoora Police Station filed an affidavit stating that on the complaint given by one Musali Harinatha Reddy working as the Security Officer in Aurobindo Pharma Limited, Unit – IX, Gundlamachanoor Village, Hathnoora Mandal, Medak District, a case in Crime No. 8 of 2009 for the offences under Sections 380 and 411 IPC has been registered on the file of Hathnoora Police Station in which the alleged detenu is arrayed as A-2. The alleged detenu has been arrested on 23-01-2009 by following due procedure and at his instance, stolen property was recovered from Anu’s Laboratorties Limited, Hyderabad under the cover of confessional and recovery panchanama. On the same day, he was produced before the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Narsapur who remanded him to judicial custody and pursuant to the remand order, he was lodged in Sub-Jail, Sangareddy, Medak District. Later, he was enlarged on bail on 24-01-2009. Since the alleged detenu when produced before the Magistrate on 23-01-2009 has not complained of any illegal detention as alleged in the fax message and was remanded to judicial custody after obtaining lawful order and later released on bail, no cause survives for adjudication in the writ petition. It is accordingly dismissed. A. GOPAL REDDY, J B. CHANDRA KUMAR, J 11-02-2009 ks
