IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) FRIDAY, THE FOURTH DAY OF DECEMBER TWO THOUSAND AND NINE PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION NO : 23872 of 2009 Between: G.Susheelamma, W/o G.Hussain Reddy, aged about 45 years, Occu: Housewife, R/o Plot No.101, Maqdoom Plaza, Madhava Nagar, Kurnool. ..... PETITIONER AND 1. The Superintendent of Police, Kurnool District at Kurnool and4 others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION No.23872 of 2009 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a Writ of Mandamus declaring the action of respondents 1 and 2 in not taking any steps for arresting respondents 3 and 4 and not completing investigation expeditiously, as being illegal and arbitrary and consequently sought for a direction to respondents 1 and 2 to take steps for arresting respondents 3 and 4 and complete the investigation expeditiously. Brief facts of the case are that the petitioner filed a private complaint before the Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Kurnool, against respondents 3 to 5 for the offences punishable under Sections 120 (b), 420, 406, 409, 426 and 422 of I.P.C., read with Section 34 of I.P.C. and Section 5 of Depositors Act, 1999 and the same was referred to 2nd respondent, under Section 156 (3) of Cr.P.C., for investigation and report. The police registered it as Crime No.146 of 2008 of Kurnool III Town Police Station, on 22.08.2008, under the aforesaid Sections. However, since there is no progress in the investigation and the 2nd respondent did not take any steps to arrest respondents 3 and 4, the petitioner approached the 1st respondent and gave a representation on 05.09.2009 requesting him to take appropriate steps for arresting respondents 3 and 4, but no action has been taken and the same is pending before the 1st respondent. Hence the present writ petition. On instructions, the learned Government Pleader for Home submits that, after completion of investigation, the police filed charge sheet against the accused and since respondents 3 and 4 herein i.e., A1 and A2 have been absconding, they were not arrested by the police. He further submits that respondent No.5 (A3) has been enlarged on anticipatory bail. In the light of the aforesaid subsequent developments, I find no merit in this writ petition and the same is liable to be dismissed. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ___________________________ (GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J) 04-12-2009 Gsn.
