Heard both sides. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that there is inordinate delay in lodging the complaint, which shows that the complaint is a false one. After arguing for some time, learned counsel for the petitioner-accused withdrawing the main prayer, confined his arguments requesting the Court to dispense with the presence of the petitioner before the court below. 4. Since the allegations made against the petitioner and other accused are punishable under Sections 498(A), 406, 506 and 323 IPC, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings. In any event, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the petitioner being lady, the Investigating Officer is hereby directed to strictly follow the amended provisions under Section 41 of Cr.P.C. 5. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. ________________ RAJA ELANGO, J. 1st February 2011, Rns.
