Narsimhulu was picked up by the police, claiming to be the constables of Kalyandurg police station, on 27th July 2005 at 12-45 a.m. Various other allegations were made in the accompanying affidavit, the details of which may not be relevant at this stage. On 2nd August 2005, when the matter was taken up for admission, the learned Advocate General took notice on behalf of the respondents and sought time to file counter. Today, when the matter is taken up, counter affidavit filed by the Sub Inspector of Police, Kalyandurg police station, is placed before this Court. According to the counter affidavit, the alleged detune Narsimhulu figures as an accused in a number of crimes of various police stations viz., Crime Nos. 58, 60, 106 of 2004 and 11 of 2005 and he was absconding. The alleged detune was arrested on 3rd August 2005 at Duddekunta Village Bus Stop, Beluguppa Mandal, and he was duly produced before the Magistrate, who in turn, remanded to judicial custody. The fact that the alleged detune is already remanded to judicial custody is not disputed. In the circumstances, we do not see any reason to proceed further with the enquiry in the Habeas Corpus petition and the same is liable to be dismissed. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed at the stage of admission. No costs. ---------------------- J.Chelameswar, J ------------------------------- M.Venkateswara Reddy, J 8th August 2005 mrk
