IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD DATED: THIS the 26th day of April, 2011 PRESENT: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N. RAVI SHANKAR CRL.P.No. 2862 of 2011 Between: Movva Rama Seshagiri Rao and another ..Petitioners and Kosanam Srinivasa Rao and another Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N. RAVI SHANKAR CRL.P.No. 2862 of 2011 O r d e r: Heard the petitioners’ counsel. Initially this court being under the impression on the representation made that the matter was numbered in the concerned court of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class (JFCM) announced that the admit be admitted. However, an immediate scrutiny of the record revealed that the matter has not yet been numbered by the JFCM it is still at SR stage. Hence the matter has not been admitted. 2. The grievance of the petitioners is that the complainant was earlier their advocate and therefore in connection with some dispute relating to taking away the records from his office pertaining to the petitioners, he filed a private complaint alleging certain offences. The petitioners also say that on the application of the complainant, the JFCM also issued warrant appointing a Commissioner to take possession of the records. It is also represented that this warrant has been executed and the records have been taken away. 3. What should be noted is that the complaint is at S.R. stage and is under consideration of the concerned JFCM Court. The learned JFCM may take cognizance of it or may dismiss it under Section 203 of Cr.P.C. or he may even refer it to police under Sec. 156 of Cr.P.C. for investigation and repot and in that event the police will have to take a decision after completion of investigation either to file a charge sheet or to close the case. With regard to records, it is always open for the petitioners to make an application before the JFCM Court and claim for return of the records. In these circumstances, I do not see any reason to entertain this petition and this matter has to be decided by the JFCM Court with regard to taking cognizance of the case. 4. Accordingly this petition is dismissed. _____________________ N. RAVI SHANKAR, J. April 26, 2011. *BVS/CVRK THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N. RAVI SHANKAR CRL.P.No. 2862 of 2011 April 26, 2011.
