Heard. 3. The offence alleged against the petitioner and two other accused is of killing the deceased S. Hanumantha Rao, who is their brother. The deceased was found murdered and there are no eyewitnesses to the incident. The son, S. Lakshmana Rao, of the deceased suspecting the accused, gave complaint against them. The case is under investigation. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that there are civil disputes between the parties and initially petitioner was successful in the civil case, as such, there was no motive for the petitioner to kill the deceased and that there is no incriminating material against the petitioner. Hence, the impugned proceedings against the petitioner may be quashed. 5. The offence being under Section 302 IPC and as the names of the petitioners are found in the complaint as suspects, it is not at all a fit case for quashing the impugned proceedings. 6. Therefore, the Criminal Petition is dismissed at the admission stage itself. ____________________ P. SWAROOP REDDY, J February 11, 2010. PV
