Counsel for the Petitioner: TELEGRAM Counsel for the Respondent No.: THE ADVOCATE GENERAL The Court made the following : ORDER: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice K.C.Bhanu) This is a taken up writ petition basing on the telegram dated 27.02.2008 sent by the petitioner wherein it was stated that the son of the petitioner, namely, Syed Jabbar, was illegally detained by the police, Madhapur, since 25.02.2008. The Inspector of Police, Madhapur Police Station, Cyberabad, the first respondent herein filed counter affidavit stating that the alleged detenu is accused No.1 in Crime No.133 of 2008 for the offences punishable under Sections 379, 406, 468, 471, 420 r/w 34 IPC of Madhapur Police Station. In connection with the said crime the alleged detenu was arrested on 28.02.2008 at 5.00 p.m., and on 29.02.2008 he was produced before the IX Metropolitan Magistrate, Kukatpally, Miyapur, who remanded the alleged detenu to judicial custody. On such remand, initially the alleged detenu was lodged at Central Prison, Cherlapally and later, it appears, he was enlarged on regular bail on 5.03.2008. In view of the same, question of illegal detention as alleged in the telegram, does not arise because the alleged detenu was arrested in pursuance of registration of crime and on production before the learned Magistrate, he was remanded to judicial custody and later he was enlarged on regular bail. Therefore, the writ petition is devoid of merits and the same is accordingly dismissed. ___________________ (A.GOPAL REDDY, J) _____________ (K.C. BHANU , J) 19th March, 2008 Js.
