THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY CRIMINAL PETITION No.8498 OF 2008 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking quashing of further proceedings against the petitioner-A2 in C.C.No.777 of 2008 on the file of the learned II Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Nampally, Hyderabad. 2. Heard both sides. Perused the record. 3. 2nd respondent herein filed private complaint before the learned II Additional Chief Magistrate, Hyderabad against the petitioner herein and others, alleging the offences under Sections 405, 409, 415 and 420 IPC and the same was forwarded to the police by the learned Magistrate under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C., and thereupon, the police registered a case in Cr.No.213 of 2007 and after investigation, police filed charge sheet and it was taken cognizance in C.C.No.777 of 2008 by the learned Magistrate for the above said offences. 4. Earlier, A1 and A3 filed Crl.P.No.7211 of 2008 and this Court by order, dated 24.11.2011, quashed further proceedings against them in C.C.No.777 of 2008 under Section 482 Cr.P.C. The only allegation made against the petitioner-A2 is that he colluded with A1 and A3 and misused his power as Branch Manager and withheld the sale deed on a false pretext of continuance of the security. As the proceedings against the principal accused-A1 and A3 are quashed by the above said order, for the same reasons mentioned therein, continuance of further proceedings against the petitioner-A2 are also not sustainable. The ingredients of the alleged offences are not at all attracted even prima facie against the petitioner- A2 also. In the circumstances, in view of the orders, dated 24.11.2011, in Crl.P.No.7211 of 2008, and adopting the reasoning mentioned therein and applying the same to the case of the present petitioner-A2 also, it is considered a fit case where further proceedings against the petitioner- A2 also can be quashed and accordingly they are quashed by invoking the inherent powers of the Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C. 5. In the result, Criminal Petition is allowed. _______________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 08th December, 2011. Tsy
