THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.9518 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against him in PRC No.13 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Punganur, Chittoor District. Heard. Offences alleged against the petitioner are punishable under Sections 324 and 427 read with Section 34 of IPC and Section 3 (1) (x) of SC/ST (POA) Act. Since the material on record prima facie reveals allegations against the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial. In any event, taking into consideration of the fact that there is no provision for anticipatory bail for the offence under Section 3 (1) (x) of SC/ST (POA) Act alleged against the petitioner, the Investigating Officer is directed to complete the investigation without making arrest of the petitioner. With the above observation, this criminal petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this criminal petition shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 30.09.2011 v v
