THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.2541 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioners – Accused 1, 3 to 6 approach this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings against them in C.C.No.436 of 2005 on the file of the XIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Mahila Court, Hyderabad, whereby they are facing charge for the offence punishable under Sections 498(A) IPC and 4 and 6 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. 2. Heard both sides. 3. After arguing for some time, learned counsel for the petitioners confined his arguments only in connection with pendency of the warrants against the first petitioner is concerned. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that since the first petitioner is the witness in the murder case in Australia, he could not attend the Court. Hence, warrants issued against him by the trial Court and further submitted that the first petitioner is ready to face the case if the warrants are recalled. 5. This Court is of the view that the learned trial Judge issued warrants only to secure the presence of the petitioner before the Court. When the first petitioner himself volunteers to come to Court, the warrants pending against him are hereby recalled and the first petitioner is directed to appear before the Court regularly. As far as petitioners 2 to 5 are concerned, their presence before the trial Court is dispensed with and they shall appear before the court concerned whenever the learned Magistrate insists for the same and they shall be properly represented before the court through their advocate. 6. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. 7 . The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. ________________ RAJA ELANGO, J. 22nd March 2011, Rns.
