THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.4194 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioners approach this Court by way of invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings against them in FIR.No.52 of 2010 of Robertsonpet Police Station, Machilipatnam, whereby they are arrayed as accused for the offence punishable under Section 324 read with 34 IPC, which was later altered to Sec.3(1)(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes(Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Heard. On 20.05.2010 this Court directed the respondent-police to complete the investigation without making arrest of the petitioners. Learned counsel for the respondent-state today submitted that the investigation is completed and they filed charge sheet against the petitioners by deleting Section 3(1)(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Hence, this Court is of the view that the present petition has become infructuous. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that since the petitioners are not arrested, if the lower court issued Non-bailable warrants, they may be permitted to file an application to recall the warrants. Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to file a petition before the concerned Court to recall the warrants, if any, pending against them. On such filing, the learned Magistrate is directed to recall the same and to proceed with the trial. 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 13th October 2011, Rns.
