THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE P. SWAROOP REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No.375 OF 2010 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioner – accused seeking to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.112 of 2009 on the file of the I Additional Munsif Magistrate, Narasaraopet, Guntur District, arising out of a private complaint. 2. Heard both sides. 3. The contention of the petitioner is that the cheque and pronote were given as security in a chit transaction and by misusing the same, the present complaint is filed. We cannot go into the correctness of the undisputed fact that the cheque and pronote are issued as security. However, considering the circumstances, particularly in view of the nature of contention and as the petitioner is a lady, her presence during trial shall be dispensed with on appropriate petition being filed and she has to appear at the time of framing of charges, examination under Section 313 Cr.P.C. and pronouncement of judgment. In view of the fact that the petitioner has given this facility, the complainant’s presence also shall not be insisted for every adjournment and the C.C.itself shall be disposed of expeditiously. 4. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. ___________________ P. SWAROOP REDDY, J. 21st January 2010, Rns.
