IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRAPRADESH AT HYDERABAD HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU CRIMINAL PETITION No.8073 of 2009 DATE: 13.10.2011 Between: S.Vanaja …… Petitioner And State of A.P rep. by Public Prosecutor, High Court of A.P, Hyderabad …..Respondent HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU CRIMINAL PETITION No.8073 of 2009 ORDER : The petitioner/A-1 is accused of offences punishable under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 and 120-B I.P.C. The defacto-complainant/2nd respondent is a medical practitioner residing in England. There is no dispute that as per registered sale deeds dated 07.12.1994 and 16.12.1994, she purchased 4512 Sq. yds of land in bit No.11 and 3993 Sq. yards of land in bit No.9 located in S.Nos.122 and 123 of Gachibowli village, Serilingampalli Mandal. A-1 is no other than the sister-in-law of the 2nd respondent. It is alleged that when the 2nd respondent came to India and went to the land, she came to know that A-1 approached A-2 to A-5 and proposed to sell the above lands on the basis of agreement for sale-cum-General Power of Attorney dated 12.06.1995. According to the 2nd respondent, the said document dated 12.06.1995 was forged and fabricated by A-1 taking advantage of the 2nd respondent’s absence in India. It is contended by the petitioner’s counsel that the said document is of the year 1995 and that the dispute is only a civil dispute between the parties. The disputed document is not a registered one. There is no civil suit pending between the parties with regard to these properties. In any event, even though the dispute is with regard to documents and landed property since there are allegations of forgery of signatures of the 2nd respondent and fabrication of agreement for sale-cum- general power of attorney, the sections of law for which F.I.R was registered do attract to the facts of this case. There are no grounds for quashing F.I.R in this case. 2) Hence, the petition is dismissed. _______________________________ SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU, J October 13, 2011 ksh
