THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8817 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioner seeking to recall the Non Bailable Warrants issued against him in P.R.C.No.10 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Pithapuram, East Godavari District, whereby he is facing charge for the offence punishable under Section 3(1)(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989. 2. Heard both sides. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner-accused submits that the petitioner is ready to appear before the Court and face the trial. 4. The very grievance of the petitioner is that the learned Magistrate issued NBW while taking cognizance of the case against him. This court is of the view that the issuance of NBW is not erroneous in law. In any event, the said issuance of NBW is only with an intention to secure the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court. When the petitioner himself intends to appear before the Court, the warrant issued against him can be recalled. Considering the same, on appearance of the petitioner before the trial Court, the learned trial Judge is directed to recall the warrant issued against him. Further, the learned Magistrate is directed to commit the case on or before 30th November 2011. After committal of such case, the presence of the petitioner before the Sessions Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Sessions Judge insists for the same and he shall properly be represented through his counsel before the Sessions Court. 5. With the above observation, the criminal petition is dismissed. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this criminal petition, if any, shall stand closed. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 22nd September 2011, Rns.
