The Inspector of Police, Task Force, West Zone, Hyderabad —1st respondent filed a counter affidavit stating that originally the name of the alleged detenu is Mohd. Ghousuddin @ Khaisar and he is an accused in Cr.No.37 of 2009 for the offence under Section 292 IPC of Nampally Police Station, Hyderabad on the complaint given by Sub- Inspector of Police, Task Force, West Zone, Hyderabad. The first respondent apprehended the alleged detenu on 13-02-2009 and recovered one cell phone and two porno VCDs from his possession and immediately handed over him along with the seized articles to Nampally police for taking further action. Accordingly the Nampally police arrested the alleged detenu on 13-02-2009 and produced him before the XII Additional Metropolitan Magistrate, Nampally, Hyderabad on 14-02-2009 and on such production he was remanded to judicial custody. On the same day the alleged detenue was released on regular bail. In the remand proceedings the alleged detenu not even made any compliant to the Magistrate either against the 1st respondent police or against the Nampally police that he was illegal detained by the 1st respondent. In view of the same, we see no merit in the contents of the telegram that the police illegally detained the alleged detenu. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. _________________ A.GOPAL REDDY, J. __________________ B.CHANDRA KUMAR,J. 04-03-2009 Murthy .....
