THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU CRIMINAL PETITION No. 2432 OF 2009 ORDER: 1. This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in F.I.R. No.43 of 2009 of LMD Colony police station, Karimnagar district, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 447 and 427 I.P.C. 2. Heard both sides. 3. The allegations in the complaint would go to show that the petitioner was granted Ac.5.11 guntas of land on 7.1.1993 and ever since he has been in continuous possession and enjoyment of the same. It is stated that the land was resumed by the concerned Tahsildar. 4. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the petitioner was given pattadar passbook and other documents and he has been paying cist to the property. There is serious dispute with regard to the possession and enjoyment of the property. As there is a bona fide civil dispute between the parties, the question of trespass does not arise. The said dispute has to be decided by the competent civil court in accordance with law. As the dispute is of civil nature, continuation of the impugned proceedings against the petitioner is nothing but abuse of process of court. 5. The Criminal Petition is, accordingly, allowed. The proceedings in F.I.R. No.43 of 2009 of LMD Colony police station, Karimnagar district are quashed. ---------------- 06.8.2010 DRK THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU CRIMINAL PETITION No. 2432 OF 2009 Date: 6.8.2010 Between: Voriganti Ravinder Reddy …Petitioner And State of A.P., through the S.H.O., LMD p.s.
