HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G. KRISHNA MOHAN REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No.4097 OF 2008 DATE: 05-08-2011 BETWEEN: T. Srikanth. - - - Petitioner/A-2. AND The State of A.P., Rep. by Public Prosecutor, High Court of A.P., Hyderabad, And another. - - - Respondents/ Complainant. This Court made the following : HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G. KRISHNA MOHAN REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No.4097 OF 2008 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed by the Petitioner/A-2 under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the charge sheet in C.C. No.223 of 2008, pending on the file of III Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad at L.B. Nagar, Ranga Reddy District. 2. Whereas the Petitioner is A-2, the Respondent No. 2 is the De-facto Complainant in the Calender Case. 3. For the sake of convenience, I refer the parties as arrayed in the Calender Case. 4. It is a case of harassment of the de-facto complainant namely T. Phani Chandrika, wife of A-1, daughter-in-law of A-3 and A-4 and brother-in-law of A-2. The main allegation against the Petitioner/A-2 and the other Accused in this case is that they all harassed the de- facto complainant mentally and physically for want of additional dowry and threatened the parents of the de-facto complainant and on 27-07- 2006, the in-laws of the de-facto complainant i.e., A-3 and A-4 called her to their residence and they along with their younger son i.e. the petitioner herein demanded her to give Rs.3,00,000/-as additional dowry and when she did not give any reply, A-3 bluntly told her to give the amount within two days or face the cancellation of marriage. 5. It is pertinent to note here that only omnibus allegations are made against the Petitioner/A-2. Further, it is contended that the Petitioner/A-2 is a resident of Texas, U.S.A. whereas the de-facto complainant is also a resident of U.S.A. The allegation against the Petitioner appears to be bald in nature in other words there are no specific allegations against the petitioner, which can be taken cognizance of with regards to the harassment of the de-facto complainant in India. 6. Prima-facie it appears that a false case was registered against the Petitioner/A-2 and hence, I am inclined to allow the Criminal Petition. 7. For the foregoing reasons, the entire proceedings in C.C. No.223 of 2008, pending on the file of III Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad at L.B. Nagar, Ranga Reddy District, in so far as the Petitioner/A-2 are hereby quashed accordingly allowing the petition. __________________________ G. KRISHNA MOHAN REDDY, J Dated: 05-08-2011. Dsh.
