THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.11678 OF 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is filed by the petitioner-A.2 seeking to quash the proceedings against him in Crime No.397 of 2011 on the file of the IV Town Police Station, Visakhapatnam, whereby he is arrayed as accused for the offence punishable under Sections 419 and 420 of IPC. Heard. The main contention raised by the learned counsel for the petitioner is that he has not the person who received the money from the de facto complainant. In fact, he is not aware of the character of the main accused, who received money from the complainant. In the circumstances, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the investigation at the stage. But considering the fact that the person who is the petitioner herein, is not the person that received the money from the de facto complainant, the petitioner is at liberty to approach the District and Sessions Court by filing a petition for anticipatory bail and on such filing, the District and Sessions Judge is directed to consider the same favourably. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 21st November 2011 Rns
