Heard learned Counsel appearing for the petitioners and learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondent-State. Learned Counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the period stipulated in the notice dated 9-9-2010 has been expired by 9- 3-2011, therefore the very purpose for which the notice has been issued has become infructuous. This factual aspect has not been contradicted by the learned Additional Public Prosecutor. As seen from the preliminary order issued under Section 111 read with 107 Cr.P.C., the petitioners herein are required to execute a bond for Rs.10,000/- so as to keep peace for a period of six months. The preliminary order is dated 9-9-2011. As on this day, the period stipulated in the order has been worked out. Therefore continuation of the proceedings has become redundent. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed quashing the proceedings in M.C.No.5 of 2010 on the file of the Sub-Divisional Magistrate, Parvathipuram. __________________________ B.Seshasayana Reddy, J 27th April, 2011 smr
