THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL PETITION No.2360 of 2008 ORDER: This petition is filed by the petitioners under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against him in Crime No.232 of 2008 on the file of the Station House Officer, Madhapur police station, Nalgonda District. When this petition was listed for the first time on 24.4.2008, learned Public Prosecutor sought time for obtaining instructions and the same was directed to be posted after Summer vacation. Thereafter, this matter did not see the light of the day and the same is listed before me today for the first time. From the above, it is quite clear that the learned counsel for the petitioners is not evincing any interest in prosecuting the case. However, as there is no stay of all further proceedings in the crime and the crime was registered on 15.4.2008, in my considered view, the police must have completed the investigation into the crime and submitted a final report either way. In the light of the above, at this length of time, this Court is not inclined to entertain this petition and go into the merits of the case. Accordingly, Criminal Petition is dismissed. _____________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Date: 26th April, 2010 Pnb
