IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY FRIDAY, THE TWENTY EIGHTH DAY OF AUGUST, TWO THOUSAND NINE CONTEMPT CASE No.1085 of 2009 Between: … Petitioner And: … Respondent Counsel for the Petitioner: Sri Y.Subrahmanyam. Counsel for the Respondent: Ms.Niyatha for GP for Home. This Court made the following: ORDER:- This Contempt Case is filed alleging wilful disobedience of order, dated 24-4-2009 in Writ Petition No.2861 of 2008, by which this Court disposed of the Writ Petition with the observation that if the petitioner files a complaint before the respondent, he shall act in accordance with law. The grievance of the petitioner is that despite filing of the complaint by the petitioner, the respondent has not taken action for registration of the complaint. In the counter-affidavit filed by the respondent it is, inter alia, stated that the complaint filed by the petitioner was registered as Crime No.77 of 2008 for the offences under Sections 498-A, 420, 468, 471 and 341 read with Section 34 IPC on 4-7-2008; that the investigation made into the said complaint revealed that it was registered by mistake of fact; and that after obtaining permission from the Sub-Divisional Police Officer, Jangareddygudem, final report to that effect will be filed. At the hearing, Ms.Niyatha, learned counsel representing the learned Government Pleader for Home, submitted that since the complaint of the petitioner was registered as a crime and investigated in to by the respondent, as directed by this Court, the latter has not committed any contempt. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, I am of the view that in view of registration of the crime, as directed by this Court, it cannot be said that the respondent has committed any contempt. If the petitioner feels aggrieved by the final report that may be filed by the respondent before the jurisdictional Magistrate, she shall be free to file a protest petition. The respondent is directed to file the final report within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Subject to the above direction, the Contempt Case is disposed of. ------------------------------------ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date:28-8-2009 MNR
