Pursuant to the notice, first respondent filed a counter affidavit stating that neither the petitioner nor his family members approached the first respondent with regard to the abduction of his daughter by fourth respondent.

During the course of investigation, they have examined the petitioner and other family members, visited the locality of the alleged detenu and recorded the statements of neighbours, which corroborated the contents of the First Information Report. Then, he visited the place of fourth respondent i.e. Konathapalli village, Veerlupadu Mandal, Krishna District and learnt that the fourth respondent left the house and his whereabouts are not known to any of the family members, and on that, necessary Radio message was flashed in all police stations of Krishna District to trace out the alleged detenu and fourth respondent. The investigation further revealed that on earlier occasion, the alleged detenu went along with fourth respondent and on coming to know of the same, petitioner went to the place of fourth respondent and brought her back. Once again, she left along with fourth respondent and the investigation is in progress to trace out the whereabouts of the alleged detenu and the fourth respondent. In view of the circumstances explained in the counter affidavit that the police are making efforts to trace out the alleged detenu and the fourth respondent, and a case has also been registered in Crime No.231 of 2007, it is suffice to direct the first respondent to file necessary report/charge sheet before the Magistrate concerned after completion of the investigation. The first respondent shall also intimate the petitioner about the production of the alleged detenu and fourth respondent before the Magistrate, as and when they are traced out. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No costs. ________________ A. GOPAL REDDY, J. __________________ 01st OCTOBER, 2007 P. SWAROOP REDDY, J. Tsr.
