THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.653 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioners – A8 and A9 seeking to quash the proceedings in P.R.C.No.2 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Jangaon, Warangal District, arising out of Cr.No.96 of 2010 of Bachannapet Police Station, Warangal, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 498(A) and 304(B) of IPC and 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961. 2. Heard both sides. 3. As the petitioners are facing allegations under the provisions of Dowry Prohibition Act and under sections 498(A) and 304(B) of IPC, and also in view of the fact that the crime is registered in the month of December 2010 only, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioners at this stage. In any event, as the offence arises out of matrimonial disputes, where the question of identity of the accused does not arise, this Court is inclined to dispense with the presence of the petitioners before the trial Court. 4. Accordingly, the presence of the petitioners-accused before the trial Court is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for their appearance and they shall be represented through their counsel. 5. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. _______________ RAJA ELANGO, J. 28th January 2011, Rns.
