On a complaint given by the de facto complainant- P.Lakshmi, a case in Cr.No.114 of 2009 was registered against the petitioner for the offence under Section 354 IPC. The investigation is stated to be pending. 4. A perusal of the contents of the complaint would disclose that on 02.12.2009 at about 3.00 p.m. while the de facto complainant was attending to the coolie work in the fields of one Kakikaneni Satyanarayana, the accused, who was in the neighbouring fields, came upon the complainant, pulled her down and attempted to commit rape on her and that she some how got out of his clutches and informed the said Satyanarayana about the said incident. It is further alleged that the accused again came to the de facto complainant, slapped her and threatened that he will not leave her and the said Satyanarayana also admonished the accused for his conduct. 5. In view of the specific allegations made against the accused and having regard to the serious nature of the offence alleged, it is considered not a fit case to invoke the inherent powers of the Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C. and quash the further proceedings. The matter requires thorough investigation. 6. In the result, Criminal Petition is dismissed. Interim stay granted on 25.03.2010 stands vacated. _______________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 13th October, 2010 Tsy
