THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.7971 of 2011 ORDER: Aggrieved by order dated 10.03.2011 passed by the XIV Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, in Crl.M.P.No.677 of 2011 in Crime No.84 of 2011 and as confirmed by order dated 24.06.2011 passed by the VII Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, in Revision Petition No.76 of 2011, the petitioner/owner of the property filed the present criminal petition. By order dated 10.03.2011 passed in Crl.M.P.No.677 of 2011 in Crime No.84 of 2011, the learned XIV Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, allowed the petition filed by the petitioner/owner of the property, seeking interim custody of the property, on condition of the petitioner executing a bond for Rs.50,000/- with one surety and on further condition that he should produce the property as and when ordered by the Court and should not alter, sell the same until further orders. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred Revision Petition No.76 of 2011 before the VII Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, and the same was dismissed by order, dated 24.06.2011. Hence, this criminal petition is filed. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that pursuant to the order dated 10.03.2011, the Court below is insisting the petitioner to deposit cash of Rs.50,000/- as one surety. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also the submissions of the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court is of the view that as per the order dated 10.03.2011 passed by the Court below, there is no necessity to compel the petitioner to deposit a sum of Rs.50,000/- as one surety and unless otherwise the petitioner himself volunteers to deposit the said amount, the Court below has no power to insist him to deposit cash of the said amount. Hence, with regard to one surety, the Court below is directed to accept one surety who can produce some document showing that he is having property worth of Rs.50,000/-. With the above observation, this criminal petition is disposed of. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 06.09.2011 v v
