THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY TRANSFER CRIMINAL PETITION No.275 OF 2010 ORDER: This petition is filed under Section 407 Cr.P.C., seeking transfer of C.C.No.271 of 2007 on the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Metpaly to some other Court in Kurnool District on the ground that the petitioner is receiving threats from the 2nd respondent and her people. 2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the 1st respondent-State. None appeared for the 2nd respondent. Perused the record. 3. Petitioner is facing prosecution for the offence under Section 498-A IPC in C.C.No.271 of 2007 filed at the instance of the 2nd respondent, who is the wife of the petitioner. Charge sheet was filed as long back as in 2007. It is not disputed that the 2nd respondent filed M.C.No.29 of 2007 and the same was disposed of recently. There is absolutely no material placed on record to show that the 2nd respondent or her people at any time threatened the petitioner. No particulars of the alleged threats as to the date on which the petitioner is threatened and by whom are disclosed in the affidavit filed in support of the application. In the absence of any such particulars, the allegation that the 2nd respondent and her people are threatening the petitioner remains totally vague and baseless. Learned Sessions Judge by order, dated 18- 08-2010, rightly dismissed the petition in Crl.M.P.1482 of 2009 in C.C.No.271 of 2007 filed by the petitioner herein for the self-same relief of transfer of the case from the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Metpally to some other Court. There are absolutely no grounds to transfer C.C.No.271 of 2007 from the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Metpaly, having competent jurisdiction, to some other Court in Kurnool District. 4. In the result, Transfer Criminal Petition is dismissed. _______________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 22nd November, 2010 Tsy
