No.25 of 2008 on the file of V Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Rajahmundry arising out of Crime No.122 of 2007 of Rajanagaram Police Station, Rajahmundry Rural Circle, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 376, 328, 384, 506 and 509 read with 34 IPC. 2. Heard. 3. This is a serious case, where accused No.1 has allegedly made the de facto complainant to consume a cool drink, on account of which she became unconscious, raped her during that condition, took photographs of the offence and started blackmailing her to submit to himself and went on committing the offence on several occasions and the petitioner herein on the instructions of accused No.1 used to take her to the places of his (A-1) choice. Such being the allegation against the petitioner, it is not at all a fit case for quashing the impugned proceedings against him. 4. Therefore, the Criminal Petition is dismissed at the admission stage itself. ______________________ P. SWAROOP REDDY, J November 18, 2009. PV
