This Writ of Habeas Corpus is taken up at the instance of the petitioner’s telegram, dated 06-08-008, wherein it is alleged that one Sri Ahmed Bin Salam, s/o. Salam Bin Ahmed, resident of H.No.8-2-609/B/15, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, was illegally detained by the Inspector of Police, Task Force, Hyderabad, that he is apprehending danger to his life and set him at liberty forthwith. 3. A counter affidavit has been filed by the Inspector of Police, West Zone Task Force Team, Hyderabad, representing the first respondent herein, stating inter alia that the alleged detenu is an accused in Crime No.154 of 2008 for the offence punishable under Sections 177, 181, 471, 419 of Indian Penal Code and Section 30 of Arms Act, of Vikarabad Police Station, Ranga Reddy District, which was registered on 16-05-2008. The alleged detenu was arrested on 08-08-2008 in connection with the above said crime and produced before the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Vikarabad, Ranga Reddy District, on the same day, who inturn remanded him to judicial custody.

In view of the above said facts, the question of illegal detention does not arise. 5. For the foregoing, we do not find any merit in the writ petition and the same is liable to be dismissed. 6.
