THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.2788 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is filed by the petitioner seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against him in C.C.No.482 of 2008 on the file of the XIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, City Criminal Courts at Hyderabad, wherein he is facing trial for the offences punishable under Sections 448, 498-A and 506 read with Section 109 IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard. After arguing for sometime, when this Court expressed that this Court is not inclined to quash the further proceedings against the petitioner on the grounds raised by the learned counsel for the petitioner, the counsel confined his arguments only to the extent of dispensing with the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court. The criminal petition is, accordingly, dismissed. In any event, since the question of identity of the petitioner does not arise in this matter, the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court is dispensed with, except on the dates the learned Judge insists for the same, and the petitioner shall be properly represented by his counsel. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this criminal petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 29.03.2011 v v
