JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.3653 of 2010 ORDER:- This writ petition is filed for a Mandamus to declare the inaction of respondent No.1 in taking steps to trace, arrest and produce respondent No.2 before the jurisdictional Magistrate, as illegal. The petitioner, who claims to be the father of the complainant in a criminal case registered under Section 498-A of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and Section 5 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961, filed the present writ petition seeking the abovementioned relief. In my opinion, the petitioner is not competent to file the writ petition, as he is not the complainant. At any rate, as the criminal case is pending before the jurisdictional Magistrate, the aggrieved party is entitled to file an appropriate application for securing the presence of respondent No.2. Subject to the above observation, the writ petition is disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, WPMP.No.4771 of 2010 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. _____________________________ C.V.
