THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.6713 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition, under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, is filed by the petitioners/Accused Nos.1 to 4 seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against them in C.C.No.195 of 2011 on the file of the XI Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate at Secunderabad. Heard. Offence alleged against the petitioners is punishable under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Since the material on record prima facie reveals allegations against the petitioners, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial at this stage. In any event, considering the submissions of the learned counsel and also the nature of allegations wherein the question of identity of the accused does not arise in this matter, the presence of the petitioners before the trial Court is dispensed with except on the dates the learned Magistrate insists for their presence and the petitioners shall be properly represented by their counsel. Accordingly, the criminal petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this criminal petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 05.08.2011 v v
