THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.2525 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner – Accused No.4 approaches this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings against him in C.C.No.1300 of 2010 on the file of the IX Metropolitan Magistrate, Kukatpally, Miyapur, Cyberabad, whereby they are facing charge under Sections 498-A IPC and 4 and 6 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. 2. Heard both sides. 3. After arguing for some time, learned counsel for the petitioners-accused withdrawing the main prayer, confined his arguments requesting the court to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the court below. 4. Since the allegations in the charge sheet, which was filed by the police after completion of investigation, reveals some prima facie case against the petitioners, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial against them. In any event, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, and also the matter arises out of matrimonial disputes where the question of identity of the accused does not arise, this Court is inclined to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the trial court. 5. Accordingly, the presence of the petitioners-accused before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for their appearance and they shall be properly represented through their counsel. 6. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. ________________ RAJA ELANGO, J. 22nd March 2011, Rns.
