THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.3154 OF 2011 ORDER: Petitioners approach this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against them in S.C. No.54 of 2010 on the file of the Court of the Special Sessions Judge for S.C. & S.T. Cases-cum-VII Additional Sessions Judge, Warangal. Heard. Offences alleged against the petitioners are under Sections 147, 148, 307 read with 149 of IPC and 3(1)(x) of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Prevention of Atrocities Act, 1989. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial. In any event, considering the nature of the allegations, except petitioner No.1, the presence of all other petitioners, namely, petitioners 2,3,4,5 and 6 is dispensed with, except on the dates on which the learned trial Judge insists for the same and the petitioners shall be properly represented by their counsel. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is dismissed. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. _______________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Date : 29.08.2011 pnb
