THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.9251 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against him in D.V.C.No.60 of 2011 on the file of the III Metropolitan Magistrate, Criminal Courts, Nampally, Hyderabad. Heard. The 1st respondent herein filed the aforementioned D.V.C. against the petitioner herein seeking reliefs under the provisions of Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. A perusal of the material on record prima facie reveals allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioner herein in the aforesaid D.V.C. However, considering the fact that the offences alleged arose out of matrimonial dispute wherein the question of identity of the accused does not arise, the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court is dispensed with except on the dates the learned trial Judge insists for the same and the petitioner shall be properly represented by his counsel. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this Criminal Petition shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 29.09.2011 v v
