THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.11615 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioners approach this Court invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings against them in Cr.No.298 of 2010 of Central Crime Station, Hyderabad, whereby they are arrayed as accused for the offence punishable under Sections 353 and 420 IPC. Heard. By an order dated 23.11.2010, this court granted stay of arrest of the petitioners and directed the respondent-police to investigate and file final report. Learned Public Prosecutor is not in a position to state whether the investigation is completed or not. Considering the fact that the crime registered in the year 2010, after lapse of one year, there is no purpose in keeping the matter pending. Hence, the respondent-police are directed to complete the investigation and file final report either way without making arrest of the petitioners. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. __________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 3rd November 2011, Rns
