THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N. RAVI SHANKAR CRIMINAL PETITION No.5114 OF 2011 ORDER: 1 Heard the Petitioners’ counsel and also the learned Additional Public Prosecutor. 2 A perusal of the allegations made in the charge sheet in the case i.e. C.C.No.145 of 2011 on the file of the court of XIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad would disclose offences punishable under section 498-A of IPC and sections 3 & 4 of Dowry Prohibition Act against all the Petitioners. The learned counsel for the petitioners pointed that there is a delay in giving complaint to the police and that all the Petitioners who are A.1 to A.5 in the case are innocent. The several pleas raised by the Petitioners’ counsel would show that they fall within the purview of disputed questions of fact. Hence, these questions cannot be gone into in this petition. It therefore follows that this petition cannot be entertained. 3 It is seen that Petitioners 3 & 4 are ladies and therefore their presence before the trial court for every date of hearing is dispensed with and they can be represented by their counsel. It shall also be open for the Petitioners to file a discharge application before the trial court and they can pursue their further remedies basing on the result of the said discharge application. 4 This petition is accordingly dismissed at the admission stage. ------------- 28.06.2011 Kvsn
