THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.3331 of 2010 ORDER: On the complaint submitted by the petitioner, under the Provisions of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, Crime No.79 of 2009 was registered by the Station House Officer, C.Balagal P.S., Kurnool District, against respondents 4 and 5. Criminal Petition No.9537 of 2009 was filed by respondents 3 and 4, before this Court, with a prayer to quash the said proceedings. The petitioner figured as respondent No.2, in that. The petition was disposed of by this Court through order dated 16-11-2009, directing that the investigation and the consequential steps on the basis of result of the investigation shall go on, but the respondents 3 and 4 herein shall not be arrested, till the charge-sheet is filed. The petitioner states that the 3rd respondent filed charge- sheet on 08-12-2009, but has not arrested respondents 4 and 5, even thereafter. He seeks a declaration to the effect that the inaction of the respondents 1 to 3 in arresting respondents 4 and 5, in connection with Crime No.79 of 2009, on the file of the 3rd respondent, in spite of filing charge-sheet is illegal, arbitrary and contrary to the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and prays for a direction, for their arrest. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Government Pleader for Home. In Crl.P.No.9537 of 2009, this Court directed that the respondents 4 and 5 shall not be arrested, till the charge-sheet is filed, in Crime No.79 of 2009. The charge-sheet has since been filed. Normally, the accused in a crime would be arrested to prevent their interference with the investigation, leading to filing of charge-sheet. Whether the respondents 4 and 5 deserve to be arrested, even after the charge-sheet is filed; cannot be independently dealt with by this Court, that too, in a writ petition. The petitioner was very much a party to Criminal Petition No.9537 of 2009, in which the directions, as regards filing of charge-sheet and the other related steps, were issued. If the petitioner is so advised, he can seek necessary clarification in this regard, or file an independent application, under the relevant provisions of Cr.P.C. This Court finds it difficult to pass any order in the writ petition. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to pursue his remedies, in accordance with the provisions of the Cr.P.C. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.16-02-2010. KO
