THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.13245 of 2011 ORDER: The present criminal petition is preferred by the petitioner invoking the provisions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash the proceedings against him in C.C.No.2959 of 2008 on the file of the I Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Visakhapatnam, whereby he is facing charge for the offence punishable under Section 498(A) of IPC and 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard. Admittedly, in this matter police completed investigation and filed charge sheet and in the charge sheet, there are some prima facie allegations against the petitioner. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the trial at this stage. However, as the question of identity of the accused does not arise in this nature of offences, the presence of the petitioner before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for the same and he shall properly be represented through his counsel. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions filed along with the Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. __________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 20th December 2011, Rns.
