THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.7026 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against him in P.R.C.No.52 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate at Nalgonda, wherein the petitioner is facing trial for the offence punishable under Section 3 (1) (x) of SC/ST (POA) Act, 1989. Heard. The main contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the present complaint is filed against the petitioner as a counter blast to the registration of Crime No.746 of 2009-10 of Prohibition & Excise Station, Ibrahimpatnam. He further submitted that the averments in the charge sheet do not make out any offence against the petitioner. Further, the petitioner apprehends arrest in the hands of the Police on the basis of the non-bailable warrant issued against him during the pendency of this criminal petition, therefore, the non- bailable warrant issued against the petitioner may be recalled. On perusal of the record, it is seen that the charge sheet reveals some allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this is not a fit case to quash the proceedings initiated against the petitioner in P.R.C.No.52 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate at Nalgonda, at this stage. As far as non-bailable warrant is concerned, this Court is of the view that the same is issued only for the purpose of securing the attendance of the petitioner. Hence, the non-bailable warrant issued against the petitioner is hereby recalled and the petitioner is directed to appear before the concerned Court on the next day of hearing. With the above observations, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 16.08.2011 v v
