THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO. CRL. PETITION No. 3857 of 2009. ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the FIR.No. 186 of 2009 of Gopalapuram Police Station, Hyderabad. I have heard the learned Counsel for the petitioners and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor representing the State. The petitioners are the accused in the above crime. The 2nd respondent lodged a report with the police, Gopalapuram stating that an extent of Ac. 4.89 cents in S.No. 6/4 of Ramashingavaram was assigned to him on 10.1.1997 and that he developed the land by spending huge amount and got dug a bore well and installed an electric motor and raised palm oil trees and that on 24.5.2009 the accused/petitioners have tress- passed into his land and cut the palm oil trees and committed theft of current motor and also damaged the shed and basing on the saidreport, the above crime was registered against the petitioners for the offences under Sections447, 427 and 379 IPC. The contention of the learned Counsel for the petitioners is that the D-form patta issued in favour of the 2nd respondent was cancelled by the concerned RDO on the ground that he did not bring the land into cultivation and therefore the 2nd respondent developing the land, raising palm oil trees in the land does not arise. According to the learned Counsel, the present complaint is lodged against the petitioners due to the disputes relating to assigned land and also due to boundary dispute between both parties and therefore he seeks to quash the FIR. On a consideration of the facts on record, I am of the opinion that it is not possible to hold that it is purely a civil dispute or that the allegations levelled against the petitioners are ex facie false. Since the allegations in the report clearly attract the offences under Sections 447, 427 and 379 IPC, it is not proper for this court to quash the investigation at the threshold. I see no valid grounds in the criminal petition and accordingly dismiss the same. _______________________ R. KANTHA RAO, J 09.12.2010. KRB. THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO. CRL.
