HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.1993 of 2011 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioner-accused No.10, under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against her in S.C.No.380 of 2009 on the file of the Principal Sessions Judge, Medak at Sangareddy. Heard. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that in similar circumstances, this Court quashed the proceedings in S.C.Nos. 127 and 128 of 2008 on the file of the Principal District and Sessions Judge, Medak at Sanga Reddy, by a common order dated 29.12.2010, in Criminal Petition Nos. 10764 and 10765 of 2010 and the petitioner herein stands on the same footing of the other accused. Therefore, he prayed to pass similar orders in this Criminal Petition. This Court perused the common order dated 29.12.2010 passed in Criminal Petition Nos. 10764 and 10765 of 2008 which runs as follows: “Since the issue involved in both the petitions is one and the same, these petitions are being disposed by this common order. On the basis of the report given by the second respondent-complainant, CID Hyderabad Police Station registered a case in Cr.No. 13 of 2003 against the petitioners herein for the offences punishable under sections 406, 420, 120 (B) of IPC and Section 5 of AP Protection of Depositors of Financial Establishments Act, 1999. After completion of the investigation, charge sheets were filed and the same were numbered as SC.Nos. 127 and 128 of 2008 respectively before the Principal District and Sessions Court, Medak at Sangareddy and the same are pending. While so, it appears that there was a settlement arrived at between the parties. As per the settlement, the petitioners- accused have paid the entire amounts that have been deposited by the depositors and as such the depositors are not interested to proceed with the matter further. In that regard, both the parties reduced the said compromise into writing. A memorandum of compromise is also filed. The parties are present. When the depositors are questioned, they stated that they received the amounts and therefore, they are not interested to proceed with the matter. Apparently, some of the offences for which the petitioners are charged are not compoundable and it is not proper for the Court to get the said offences compounded. But from the fact, it appears that the depositors as well as the employees working inBHEL and the accused persons have floated a firm in the name and style of M/s. Srinidhi Nivas Builders. It is a matter in between the employees of BHEL. If this Court does not record the said compromise, tomorrow when the case is taken up for trial, the alleged depositors, who are cited as list of witnesses, do not support the case of the prosecution and the petitioners-accused will automatically be acquitted for lack of evidence and it amounts to wasting of precious time of the Court. Though this Court is not inclined to get the offences compounded, in view of the above circumstances, the proceedings in the above Sessions Case Nos. 127 and 128 of 2008 on the file of the Principal District and Sessions Court, Medak at Sangareddy, are hereby quashed. Accordingly, both the Criminal Petitions are allowed.” Following the aforesaid common order, the Criminal Petition is allowed and the proceedings initiated against the petitioner herein in S.C.No.380 of 2009 on the file of the Principal Sessions Judge, Medak at Sangareddy, are hereby quashed. _________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 9th March, 2011 CBS HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Crl.P.No.1993 of 2011 (Allowed) 9th March, 2011 CBS
