CMPMO No.158 of 2010 5.4.2011. Present: None for the petitioner. Mr.Ramakant Sharma, Advocate, for the respondent. None has put in appearance on behalf of the petitioner, though the case was called twice, once at 10.20 a.m. and secondly at 12.50 p.m. The petitioner has filed the present application under Sections 22 and 23 (3) CPC for the transfer of the criminal proceedings under Section 498-A IPC pending in the court of learned Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Paonta Sahib to Solan/Nalagarh. The main ground, amongst others, taken by the petitioner for the transfer of the criminal proceedings is that he is afraid of the threat of the respondent to eliminate the whole family as she holds large property of her earlier husband in her name. A notice of the petition was issued to the respondent, who has not filed any reply. I have heard the learned counsel for the respondent only and have considered the facts of the case. No case is made out for the transfer of the case from Paonta Sahib to Solan or Nalagarh, as prayed by the petitioner. Therefore, the petition is dismissed. A copy of this order be sent to the learned trial Court for information and conducting the further proceedings in the case. Record of the case, if summoned, be also returned forthwith. The petition stands disposed of accordingly, so also the pending application(s), if any. April 5, 2011. (V.K. Ahuja), (tilak) Judge.
