THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.2791 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approached this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against her in C.C.No.17 of 2008 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Vayalpad Town & Mandal, Chittoor District, wherein the petitioner is facing trial for the offences punishable under Sections 406 and 420 read with Section 34 IPC. Heard. The main contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the respondent-Police filed charge sheet showing the petitioner as absconding, even though she is very much available in her residence. Further, the petitioner apprehends arrest in the hands of the Police on the basis of the non-bailable warrant issued against her. Learned counsel also submitted that considering the fact that the petitioner is a lady, the non-bailable warrant issued against her may be recalled. On perusal of the record, it is seen that the charge sheet reveals some allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this is not a fit case to quash the proceedings initiated against the petitioner in C.C.No.17 of 2008 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Vayalpad Town & Mandal, Chittoor District, at this stage. As far as non-bailable warrant is concerned, this Court is of the view that the same is issued only for the purpose of securing the attendance of the petitioner. Hence, the non-bailable warrant issued against the petitioner is hereby recalled and the petitioner is directed to appear before the concerned Court on the next day of hearing. With the above observations, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 29.03.2011 v v
