THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. CHANDRA KUMAR CRIMINAL PETITION No.4022 OF 2010 Dated 03-11-2011 Between: Mahindra Fashions, represented by its Partner Vijaya Khanna. ..Petitioner. And: The State of A.P. represented by its Public Prosecutor, High Court of Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad and another. … Respondents. THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. CHANDRA KUMAR CRIMINAL PETITION No.4022 OF 2010 ORDER: This Criminal Petition has been filed seeking to quash the F.I.R. No.82 of 2010 dated 2-4-2010 of P.S. Matwada, Warangal District, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 406 and 420 I.P.C. No representation on behalf of the petitioner. Heard the learned Additional Public Prosecutor. The 2nd respondent herein is the Commissioner, Municipal Corporation, Warangal. He lodged a complaint to the police, Matwada, Warrangal District alleging that the petitioner herein who was awarded a contract for collection of trade license fee in Warangal Municipal Corporation, continued to collect trade license fee from the traders of Warangal even after 18-8-2009. It is further alleged that even on 31-3-2010, the petitioner and his agents indulged in collection of license fees. On the other hand, the only contention of the petitioner is that he never collected the license fees after his license had been cancelled. The question as to whether the petitioner has collected the license fees in question or not, and thereby, he committed the offences alleged against him, is to be adjudicated only after a full-fledged trial by the trial Court. In this view of the matter, I do not see any reason to quash the proceedings pending against the petitioner. Accordingly, this Criminal Petition is dismissed. ____________________ B.
