THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY CRIMINAL PETITION No.10829 OF 2010 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking quashing of further proceedings in F.I.R.No.87 of 2010 of Mannur police station, Kadapa District, registered for the offences under Sections 365, 342, 324, 506, 384 r/w 34 IPC. 2. Heard both sides. Perused the record. 3. On a complaint given by the 2nd respondent herein, police registered F.I.R.No.87 of 2010 against the petitioners-A1 to A6 for the offences under Sections 365, 342, 324, 506, 384 r/w 34 IPC. As per the averments in the complaint, on 13.07.2010 at about 5.30 p.m., while the complainant was attending to agricultural work in his fields four persons came upon him and dragged him into a vehicle by force, blindfolded him, kidnapped him and took him to Nellore and there he was confined wrongfully in a room and was physically assaulted and his signatures were obtained by force on stamped blank papers and later he was left at the bus stand, Tirupathi and then he reached Rajampet. In the complaint, it is further alleged that earlier he went to Quwait and stayed there for fifteen years and that himself and the 1st petitioner-A1 worked together at the same place at Quwait for two years and that after his return from Quwait in 2002 she extracted Rs.2,50,000/- from him by force with the aid of the police. Subsequently, again at her instance on 13.07.2010 the complainant was kidnapped and taken to Nellore. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that even as per the averments in the complaint, there was no contact between A1 and the complainant for about eight years and therefore the present complaint is false and fabricated. 5. The truth or otherwise of the allegations contained in the complaint are matters to be ascertained after investigation. When specific allegations are made in the complaint pertaining to a grave offence of kidnap under Section 365 IPC and extortion under Section 384 IPC, the same requires thorough investigation. 6. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor on instructions would submit that statements of the complainant and his father were recorded during the course of investigation and they have reiterated the version stated in the complaint. It is therefore considered a case where further investigation cannot be thwarted by quashing the First Information Report invoking the inherent jurisdiction of the Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C., having regard to the gravity of the nature of the offences alleged and the specific allegations made in the complaint prima facie attracting the ingredients of the alleged offences. 7. In the result, Criminal Petition is dismissed. _______________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 10th November, 2011. Tsy
