HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.11022 of 2011 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioners-accused, under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings initiated against them in Crime No.230 of 2010 of P.S.Saynarayanapuram, Vijayawada Town, Krishna District. Heard and perused the record. The offences alleged against the petitioners are punishable under Section 420 read with Section 34 IPC. Admittedly, the matter is still at the stage of investigation. Further, the complaint prima facie reveals some allegations against the petitioners. Hence, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioners, at this stage. In any event, since the offences arose out of civil disputes between the parties, who are related to each other, and considering the submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners that there is every possibility of settlement between the parties and if the petitioners are arrested at this stage that will cause prejudice to the future settlement between the parties, the police are hereby directed to complete the investigation without making arrest of the petitioners and, after completion of investigation, to file a final report either way before the competent Court. With the above direction, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this criminal petition shall stand closed. _____________ RAJA ELANGO, J 9th November, 2011 v v
