THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.11460 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioners – Accused Nos.3 and 4 approach this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings against them in Crime No.127 of 2011 of Rajam Police Station, Srikakulam District, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 498(A), 494 and 34 of IPC and 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard both sides. On perusal of the record, this Court is of the view that it is a matter, which requires investigation by the investigating agency, as there are so many allegations against the petitioners. Since the offence arises out of matrimonial disputes, the arrest of the petitioners would cause prejudice to the future settlement, if any, between the parties. Hence, the Investigating Officer is hereby directed to complete the investigation and file final report either way without making arrest of the petitioners - accused. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. __________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 16th November 2011 Rns
