The Hon’ble Sri Justice R.Subhash Reddy Writ Petition No.25960 of 2009 Order: Heard learned Counsel for the parties and with their consent, the Writ Petition is taken up for hearing and disposal at the stage of admission. The petitioner, who worked as Assistant Engineer in the A.P.State Housing Corporation Limited, has questioned the order of his suspension pending enquiry, passed by the first respondent-District Collector/Executive Director, vide proceedings No.1936/APSH/RRD /09/A1, dated 27th October, 2009. A perusal of the impugned order goes to show that the petitioner is placed under suspension on the ground that he is responsible for preparing certain fictitious Ids, manipulating PROs, submitting them to the banker and causing transfer of an amount of Rs.1,52,350/- to the fictitious accounts. It is further alleged therein that an amount of Rs.4,64,950/- was paid to benami beneficiaries without construction of houses and payments in excess of value of work done were also made. It is contended by learned Counsel for the petitioner that the amounts, which were subject matter of the disciplinary proceedings, have been deposited by the beneficiaries, voluntarily by way of Demand Drafts, on coming to know the mistake of fact. This is a matter, which can be gone into by the enquiry officer in the disciplinary proceedings. Inasmuch as impugned order is only an interim order of suspension pending enquiry and as it is stated that the petitioner is placed under suspension from 27-10-2009 and as no chargesheet has, so far, been issued to him, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition directing the respondents to complete the enquiry as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of four months from the date of receipt of this order. Subject to the above directions, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _________________ R.Subhash Reddy, J Dated 2nd December, 2009 Note: Furnish CC in three days. (B/o) lur
