THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.871 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioners approach this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against them in F.I.R.No.19 of 2010 on the file of Narayanaguda Police Station, Hyderabad, registered for the offence punishable under Section 506 of IPC., on the ground that the offence being non-cognizable offence, the respondent police have no power to register the case and investigate into the matter. On the last occasion, this Court directed the counsel for the respondents to verify as to whether the learned Magistrate accorded permission to the respondent police to register the case or not. Today, the learned counsel for the respondent produced a copy of the order dated 16.01.2010 passed by the learned Magistrate whereby permission was granted to register the case and conduct investigation in this case. He further submitted that as per the permission granted by the learned Magistrate, F.I.R. is registered and investigation is in progress. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that there are several disputes between the petitioners and the defacto-complainant and, therefore, the defacto-complainant filed the present false complaint against the petitioners. Whether the complaint in this case is true or not is the matter to be investigated into by the Investigating Officer. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the investigation at this stage. However, during the course of investigation, the Investigating Officer shall take into consideration the contentions of the petitioners urged in this case and conclude the investigation and file the charge sheet either way. With the above observations, this criminal petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 22.03.2011 v v
