IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) WEDNESDAY, THE FIFTEENTH DAY OF DECEMBER, TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU CRIMINAL PETITION No.7245 of 2009 Between: Karumanchi Anil & another … Petitioners And The State of A.P., through Public Prosecutor, High Court of A.P., Hyderabad & another. … Respondents This Court made the following: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU CRIMINAL PETITION No.7245 of 2009 ORDER:- 1. The petitioners 1 and 2/A1 and A2 are accused of offences punishable under Sections 427 and 379/34 IPC. It is alleged in FIR and statements of witnesses that on 12.11.2008 at about 9 p.m. some unknown persons disconnected about 300 meters of cable wire in the outskirts of Kuchipudi and committed theft of 100 meters of cable wire worth Rs.1,000/-. It is contended by the petitioners’ counsel that without knowing the identify of the culprits, the police have falsely implicated A1 and A2 in this case and that proceedings in this case are nothing but abuse of process of law. In the charge sheet, it is further stated that during the course of investigation, the Sub-Inspector of Police received information about the culprits, who were arrested by Tenali Taluk Police on that night and were remanded on 13.11.2008. Even as per statements of the witnesses, the culprits, after committing theft of cable wire and disconnecting the cable wire, were proceeding towards Tenali. In Tenali Taluk Police limits the culprits were said to have been caught. Therefore, it is not for this Court in this petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to appreciate the evidence on record. It is for the Magistrate to appreciate the same after recording the entire evidence to be let in by both the parties. I do not find any valid or legal reasons to stall the proceedings in the lower Court. 2. In the result, the criminal petition is dismissed. _____________________________ SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU, J Date: 15.12.2011 ES
