THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL PETITION NO.1576 OF 2008 ORDER: This petition is filed by the petitioners-accused Nos.1 to 5 seeking to quash the proceedings against them in C.C.No.280 of 20067 of on the file of the IX Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad. 2. While ordering notice before admission and issuing notice to the second respondent, on 18.03.2008, this Court directed the stay petition to be posted after three weeks. After lapse of two years, only today this Criminal Petition came to light. This shows that the petitioners are not evincing any interest in proceeding with the matter. However, as there is no stay of all further proceedings in the C.C., the Court below might have completed the trial or it might be in progress. 3. In the light of the above, at this length of time, this Court is not inclined to entertain this petition and go into the merits of the case. 4. Accordingly, Criminal Petition is dismissed. _____________________________ (GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J) 23rd April 2010 RRB
