A counter has been filed by the respondents stating that pursuant to a complaint filed by one Mr.B.Jaipal Reddy against the petitioners, a case in Cr.No.907 of 2005 was registered for the offences under Sections 447, 323, 427 and 506 read with Section 34 IPC on 12-11-2005. Further, on a complaint made by the said Jaipal Reddy, another case in Cr.No.1081 of 2005 was registered for the offences under Sections 447, 427 and 506 IPC on 15-12-2005. Thus, it is stated that after following the due procedure prescribed under law, the said cases have been registered and they have not interfered with any civil disputes. If the aforesaid crimes are registered illegally, it is always open for the petitioners to question the same. However, it cannot be said that registration of the criminal cases amounts to interference of the civil rights. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 10-07-2008 Prv ..... REGISTRAR // TRUE COPY // SECTION OFFICER To 1.2CCs to 2.2CD copies Form-NIC-OGS/WP{CTMP}
