THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.SESHASAYANA REDDY Criminal Petition No.6833 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner is one of the accused in Crime No.123 of 2009 of Pakala P.S., registered for the offences under Sections 384, 353, 506, 447 read with 34 IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of A.P. Land Grabbing Act, 1982. The accusation made against the petitioner is that he along with his driver has taken away a lorry bearing No.AP-03U-4538, which was seized by the Mandal Revenue Inspector. Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent-State. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submit that the petitioner is not the owner of the lorry allegedly seized by the Revenue Inspector, and therefore, the question of his taking away the lorry from the custody of the Revenue Inspector does not arise. A further submission has been made that the petitioner has been in possession and enjoyment of the land in question, and therefore, the seizure of any of the vehicles from the land in occupation of the petitioner by the Revenue Inspector does not arise. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposed the application on the ground that the investigation is pending. As seen from the report presented by T.Siddaiah and T.Murali, the petitioner along with his driver has allegedly taken away a lorry bearing No. AP-03U-4538 seized by the Mandal Revenue Inspector. Such is the accusation; I am of the view that the petitioner does not deserve for anticipatory bail. However, the petitioner is at liberty to surrender himself before the concerned Magistrate and seek regular bail, in which event, the concerned Magistrate has to consider the bail application, as expeditiously as possible, preferably on the same day. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. ____________________________ B.SESHASAYANA REDDY, J 10th September 2009 Note:- Issue C.C by 11-9-2009 (B/o) RAR THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.SESHASAYANA REDDY Criminal Petition No.6833 of 2009 DATED : 10-09-2009
