THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.5238 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioners approach this Court by way of invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. with a prayer to quash the proceedings in C.C.No.1075 of 2009 on the file of the XI Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Secunderabad, where they are facing charge for the offence punishable under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Heard. Learned counsel for the respondent-complainant fairly conceded that the petitioners are not the signatories of the disputed cheque and he has no grievance if the present petition is allowed. Recording the submission made by the learned counsel for the respondent-complainant, the proceedings in C.C.No.1075 of 2009 on the file of the XI Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Secunderabad, against the present petitioners-accused Nos.3 and 4 alone are quashed. The learned Magistrate is directed to proceed against the other accused and conclude the trial within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. _________________ RAJA ELANGO, J. 9th August 2011, Rns.
