THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.13547 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioners approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings against them in C.C.No.1863 of 2011 on the file of the IX Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad, Kukatpally, R.R.District, whereby they are facing charge for the offence punishable under Sections 498(A) IPC and 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. 2. Heard both sides. 3. After arguing for some time, learned counsel for the petitioners-accused by withdrawing the main prayer, prayed the court to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the court below. 4. In view of the submission made by the petitioners counsel and also in view of the fact that the offence arises out of matrimonial disputes, wherein the question of identity of the accused does not arise, the presence of the petitioners-accused before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for their appearance and they shall be properly represented through their counsel before the court below. 5. With the above observation, the criminal petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 23rd December 2011, Rns.
