HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.13895 of 2011 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioner/A-2, under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against him in FIR.No.1046 of 2011 on the file of the Kukatpally Police Station, Cyberabad, Ranga Reddy District. Heard and perused the record. The offences alleged against the petitioner are punishable under Sections 498-A and 420 of IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of Dowry Prohibition Act. Admittedly, the matter is still at the stage of investigation. Further, the complaint prima facie reveals some allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioner, at this stage. However, since the present crime arose out of matrimonial disputes and if the petitioner is arrested at this stage, that will cause prejudice to the future settlement if any between the parties, the police are hereby directed to complete the investigation without making arrest of the petitioner and after completion of investigation to file a final report either way before the competent Court. With the above direction, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed shall stand closed. _____________ RAJA ELANGO, J 28th December, 2011 v v
