BHANU WRIT PETITION No.25866 of 2008 ORDER: (per the Hon’ble Sri Justice V.Eswaraiah) This writ petition is filed by the wife of one Buddala Sambaiah seeking a direction in the nature of Writ of Habeas Corpus directing the respondents to produce the detenues, viz., Buddala Sambaiah, Kasagani Sammaiah, Jukanti Madhu, Gopagani Tirupati, T.Rajookar, Johny and Suman before this court alleging that her husband was taken away by the police forcibly on the intervening night of 21/22-11-2008 and that on the same night, police also took six more people, who are members of Rythu Coolie Sangham. Pursuant to the notice, the Station House Officer, Ghanpur, filed a counter stating that against the alleged detenues 1 to 7 a case in Cr.No.214 of 2008 was registered for the offences punishable under Section 144 read with Section 149 IPC and 25(1)(a)(b) of the Arms Act on 24-11-2008 by Bhupalpally Police, Warangal and all of them had been taken into custody and were remanded to judicial custody. Pursuant to the said remand order, the alleged detenues 1 to 7 along with two others were lodged at Central Prison, Warangal. As the alleged detenues are arrested in connection with Cr.No.214 of 2008 and also produced before the learned Magistrate and were remanded, it cannot be said that the alleged detenues were illegally detained without following the due process of law. Therefore, we do not find any merit in the writ petition and the same is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________ (V.ESWARAIAH, J) ______________ (K.C.BHANU, J) Dated: 03-12-2008 Prv .....
