THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.7488 of 2011 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioners seek a mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in opening and continuing rowdy sheet bearing R.D.Nos.36 and 37 respectively against them on the file of Rudravaram Police Station, Kurnool District, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioners that both of them are agriculturists and permanent residents of Chilakaluru Village, Rudravaram Mandal, Kurnool District. It is stated that they were falsely implicated in the crimes during 1994 and 1996 and based on the same, rowdy sheets were opened against them. It is also their case that though they were acquitted in the cases after full-fledged trial by the competent criminal Courts and there is no involvement in further cases after 1996, rowdy sheets are being continued against them without any basis. On written instructions, dated 25.03.2011, sent by the fourth respondent – Sub-Inspector of Police, Rudravaram Police Station, Sirivella Mandal, Kurnool District, it is submitted by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for the respondents that the first petitioner involved in Crime Nos.17 of 1994, 1 of 1996, 56 of 2004 and 34 of 2009 and the second petitioner involved in Crime Nos.17 of 1994, 1 of 1996 and 34 of 2009. It is also submitted that the petitioners are notorious rowdy elements, they have no respect to the law and they involved in number of criminal cases, as such, at the request of the villagers, the rowdy sheets were opened and are being continued against them. From the written instructions, it is to be noticed that in Crime No.17 of 1996, which was registered against both the writ petitioners for the offence under Section 302 IPC read with 34 IPC, vide S.C.No.95 of 1995, they were acquitted. Similarly, in Crime No.1 of 1996 registered for the offences under Sections 147, 148, 324 IPC read with 149 IPC, vide C.C.No.119 of 1996, they were acquitted. In other crimes, which were registered under Section 110(e)(g) Cr.P.C. for binding over them, they were asked to bind over and such period also expired. As it is the case of the petitioners that there are no crimes registered afresh or pending against them and they were already acquitted in the registered crimes, as stated by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for the respondents based on the written instructions, there is no reason to continue the rowdy sheets opened against them. Though it is stated by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the petitioners submitted representations to the respondents seeking closure of rowdy sheets on 04.12.2010, as there is no proof in token of receipt thereof, I deem it appropriate to permit the petitioners to submit another representation seeking closure of rowdy sheets opened and being continued against them, within a period of six (6) weeks from today, before the second respondent – Deputy Superintendent of Police, Allagadda, Kurnool. If any such representation is filed, I am sure, the second respondent while considering the same, will keep in mind the acquittals of the petitioners in Crime Nos.17 of 1994 and 1 of 1996 and expiry of bound over period in Crime Nos.56 and 34 of 2009, and pass appropriate orders, within a period of four (4) weeks thereafter. Subject to the above observations, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 28th MARCH, 2011. kvni
