THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.10575 OF 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against him in S.T.C.No.3 of 2009 on the file of the III Additional Junior Civil Judge, Tirupathi. Heard. Offence alleged against the petitioner is punishable under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act. A perusal of the material on record prima facie reveals some allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial. Accordingly, the criminal petition is dismissed. However, considering the nature of allegations wherein the question of identity of the accused before the trial Court does not arise, the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court is dispensed with except on the dates the learned trial Judge insists for the same and the petitioner shall be properly represented by his counsel. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this Criminal Petition shall stand closed. ___________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Dated : 21.11.2011 v v
