THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.9595 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approached this Court by invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C., with a prayer to quash the proceedings against her in C.C.No.13 of 2007 on the file of Special Judge for C.B.I. Cases, Hyderabad, wherein she is arrayed as A-3 for the offences punishable under Sections 120-B, 419, 420, 468 and 471 of IPC. The case of the prosecution is that A-1, who is the Branch Manager of Corporation Bank, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, with the conspiracy of other accused, had illegally sanctioned the housing loans between the period June, 2 to May, 2003 and thereby caused loss of Rs.4.82 crores to the Bank. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that no specific overt acts are attributed against the petitioner except mentioning that she is the wife of A-2 who had introduced the borrowers to the Bank. He further submitted that the petitioner is in no way concerned with the alleged offence and she repaid the loan amount sanctioned to her. This Court heard the arguments and perused the record. On perusal of the material on record and in the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is of the view that the contentions raised by the learned counsel for the petitioner are to be decided at the time of trial only. As such, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial at this stage. In any event, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, the presence of the petitioner before the Court below is dispensed with except on the dates the learned trial Judge insists for the same and the petitioner shall be properly represented through her counsel. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in the Criminal Petition shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 18.10.2011 v v
