HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No. 1684 of 2009 . DATED 29th JULY, 2010. BETWEEN Bekkam Nageswara Reddy ….Petitioner and The State of AP, rep. By its Public Prosecutor and anr …Respondents HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No. 1684 OF 2009. ORDER: This is a petition ﬁled under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings in Cr.No. 9 of 2009 on the ﬁle of the Gospad Police Station, Kurnool District. At the instance of the second respondent/complainant who is an employee of APSHCL, a case in crime No.9 of 2009 for the oﬀence punishable under Sections 353 and 323 of IPC is registered against the petitioner. The grievance of the petitioner herein is that when the complainant has stated nothing in the complaint, the Investigating Oﬃcer should not ﬁle a petition before the Court concerned to alter the charges. It is seen from the proceedings that during the course of investigation of the contents of the complaint, the Investigating Oﬃcer was noticed the abusing of the complainant by the petitioner by the name of his caste. In view of the same, the Investigating Oﬃcer is at liberty to ﬁle a petition to alter the charges if any new material is available. Hence, this Petition is not maintainable. The Criminal Petition is dismissed. ---------------------------------- JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO DATED 29th JULY, 2010. Msnr.
