In his complaint second respondent alleged that petitioners along with seven others approached him agreeing to purchase certain lands belonging to accused Nos.9, 10 and 11. An agreement was entered into and the same was registered after second respondent paying a sum of Rs.14.55 lakhs. Subsequently the accused did not register sale deed and therefore second respondent demanded refund of money. It was alleged that petitioners and others entered into agreement with second respondent though they did not have any title. Hence, the complaint was made. The petitioners however contend that they are in no way connected concerned with the transaction. They filed the Writ petition seeking a direction to set aside the crime. This Court while admitting the Writ Petition observed that investigation shall go on. In the counter affidavit filed by first respondent it is stated that after completing investigation, charge sheet was filed on the file of the Court of Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Chevella, Ranga Reddy District which was taken on file as C.C.No.334 of 2001 and the same is pending. When the investigation is already completed and Calendar Case is pending, petitioners can raise all their defences and contentions before the Criminal Court. In this Writ Petition the crime cannot be quashed. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed.
