THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8549 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioners approach the Court by invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. with a prayer to dispense with their presence before the court below in C.C.No.41 of 2008 on the file of the III Additional Munsif Magistrate, Ongole, whereby they are facing charge for the offence punishable under Sections 498-A of IPC. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the State. The main contention of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that the petitioners are no way concerned with the allegations and the marriage of the complainant and the first accused is a love marriage without their consent and the charge sheet filed by the respondent- police is very mechanical in nature and filed in a routine manner without conducting proper enquiry. In any event, he requested the Court to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the trial Court. In view of the nature of allegations, where the identity of the accused does not arise, the request of the petitioners can be considered. Accordingly, the criminal petition is disposed of dispensing with the presence of the petitioners before the trial Court except the dates on which the learned trial Judge insists for the same and the petitioners shall properly be represented through their counsel before the trial Court. Miscellaneous petitions filed along with the criminal petition, if any, shall stand closed. __________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 20th September 2011 Rns
