THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.10458 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner approaches this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against him in C.C. No. 107 of 2009 on the file of the VI Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate, Rajahmundry. The petitioner is arrayed as an accused in the aforementioned C.C. for the offence punishable under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is not the owner of the car bearing registration No. AP 5 S 9927, which was given to the 2nd respondent-complainant for effecting repairs and hence he denied the very issuance of the cheque in question and his involvement in the alleged offence. Learned counsel further submitted that even though the petitioner filed a petition before the trial Court under Section 91 Cr.P.C. for issuing summons to R.T.I., Rajahmundry for producing the document of ownership and R.C. in respect of the said vehicle to prove the same, the trial Court did not pass any orders on the said application. Since the petitioner is denying ownership of the vehicle in question and since he has already filed an application before the trial Court to issue summons to R.T.I., Rajahmundry to prove the said factum, this Court is of the view that a direction can be issued to the trial Court to dispose of the said application. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of with a direction to the trial Court to dispose of the application filed by the petitioner for issuing summons to R.T.I., Rajahmundry for production of certain documents, which were sought by him in the said application, as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of 15 days from today. ______________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Dated : 31.10.2011 pnb
