THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.7414 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioner – Accused No.4 seeking to quash the proceedings against him in C.C.No.130 of 2008 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Lakkireddypalli, wherein he is arrayed as accused for the offence punishable under Sections 406, 417 and 420 IPC. 2. Heard both sides. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the name of the petitioner was implicated only basing on the confessional statement of co-accused and he was falsely implicated by the officials without there being any material to connect him with the offence. The investigation also does not specify from whom the rice was purchased or collected. 4. This Court is of the view that these are all the facts to be decided by the trial Court at the time of trial only and the learned counsel for the petitioner is at liberty to raise all the points before the trial Court and this Court is not inclined to stay the proceedings at this stage. 5. In any event, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and in view of the nature of allegations, the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for his appearance and he shall be properly represented through his counsel. 6. 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 24th August 2011, Rns.
