HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.RAVI SHANKAR CRIMINAL PETITION No.5775 of 2011 Dated 15.7.2011 Between: Shaik Noorjahan and others. …Petitioners. And: The State of Andhra Pradesh, represented by its Public Prosecutor, High Court of Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad and another. …Respondents. HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.RAVI SHANKAR CRIMINAL PETITION No.5775 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioners herein are the accused in P.R.C.No.3 of 2011 on the file of the Court of the 1st Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class Court, Narasaraopet, Guntur District (committal court). That case is registered for the offences under Sections 452, 323, 506, 354 read with 34 I.P.C. 2. The grievance of the petitioners is that though they were not served with summons, the learned Magistrate proceeded to issue N.B.Ws. against them and when they applied for cancellation of the same, their petition was dismissed and that thereafter, the learned 13th Additional District Judge, Narasaraopet also dismissed their criminal revision which they filed questioning the order of the learned Magistrate. 3. The order of the learned Additional District Judge which contains all the details would show that the summons of the petitioners were returned unclaimed and therefore, the learned Magistrate felt that the petitioners have refused to receive the summons and proceeded to issue N.BWs. It is not necessary to go into those questions now but what should be noted is that the case is pending at the stage of enquiry before the learned Magistrate. 4. In the circumstances, having regard to the need for speedy disposal of the case, I am of the opinion that no notice is necessary to the 2nd respondent and the petitioners can be granted the following relief. 5. The petitioners shall, within 15 days from today, surrender themselves before the committal court and on such surrender, they are ordered to be released on bail on each of them executing a bond for Rs.5,000/- with two sureties each for a like sum to the satisfaction of the said Court. Thereupon, the committal court can proceed to dispose of the case in accordance with law. 6. This Criminal petition is accordingly disposed of in the above terms. _________________________ Justice N.RAVI SHANKAR Dated 15.7.2011. Note: Issue CC today.
