THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8451 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approaches this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings against him in C.C.No.37 of 2009 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Sulurupeta, Nellore District, whereby he is facing charge for the offence punishable under Sections 353 and 506 of IPC. 2. Heard both sides. 3. After arguing for some time, when this Court is not inclined to grant the relief sought by the petitioner, learned counsel for the petitioner-accused seeks permission of this court for withdrawing the criminal petition and further prayed the court to dispense with the presence of the petitioner before the court below. 4. On perusal of the charge sheet, which is filed by the respondent-police after completion of due investigation, there are some prima facie allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings. In any event, considering the nature of offences alleged and the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court is inclined to dispense with the presence of the petitioner before the trial court. 5. In view of the submission made by the petitioner’s counsel, permission is accorded and the criminal petition is dismissed as withdrawn. However, the presence of the petitioner-accused before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for his appearance and he shall be properly represented through his counsel. 6. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 19th September 2011, Rns.
