THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.Y.SOMAYAJULU WRIT PETITION No.20984 of 2004 Date: 09.10.2007 Between: P.V.Sudhakar Reddy …PETITIONER(S) A N D 1. The Superintendent of Police, Kadapa District, Kadapa and another …RESPONDENT(S) THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.Y.SOMAYAJULU WRIT PETITION No.20984 of 2004 ORDER: This petition is filed questioning the opening of a rowdy sheet against the petitioner. 2. In the counter-affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents, it is stated that inasmuch as the petitioner was involved in 5 criminal cases and indulging himself in unlawful activities in Annavaram village, Chapadu Mandal, and is maintaining his own gang and committing unlawful activities which are not reported in the police station by the public due to the fear of petitioner, a rowdy sheet was opened against him and was renewed up to the end of December, 2004. The petitioner did not file a reply affidavit countering the allegations made in the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents though in the affidavit filed in support of the petition he stated that the rowdy sheet was opened against him though he is not involved in any cases. 3. The learned Government Pleader for Home states that after filing of this writ petition, the petitioner involved in two more criminal cases viz., Crime Nos.79 and 106 of 2006 and so the rowdy sheet was ordered to be continued till the end of December, 2007. 4. Keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is said to have been involved in other crimes also subsequent to the filing of the writ petition I find no grounds to quash the rowdy sheet opened against the petitioner. However, the first respondent shall review the case of the petitioner by the end of 2007 and take a judicious decision whether to continue the rowdy sheet or not, in accordance with the provisions contained in the Police Standing Orders. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed. No costs. -------------- 09.10.2007 Cvrk
