THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A. GOPAL REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No. 2999 OF 2006 Date: 15-07-2010 Between Smt. Saryu Sultana Begum …..Petitioner And The State of A.P., through S.H.O., PS Bowenpally, Secunderabad, rep., by Public Prosecutor, High Court, Hyderabad and two others …..Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A. GOPAL REDDY CRIMINAL PETITION No. 2999 OF 2006 ORDER: The petitioner who is arrayed as accused in Crime No. 15 of 2006 of Police Station Bowenpally, Secunderabad for the offence under Section 420 IPC has filed this petition under Section under Section 482 Cr.P.C to quash the crime registered against her contending that respondent Nos. 2 and 3 taking advantage of the promissory notes executed by her set the criminal law in motion, which does not constitute any offence and that the only remedy for them is to file a suit for recovery of the amount. The complaint allegations clearly disclose collection of amount from respondent Nos.2 and 3 by the petitioner on the promise that they will be employed in the gulf countries, but they were taken to Hyderabad and kept there and later shifted to Bombay where they were kept for two months and from there they were shifted to Goa and thus she cheated them which clearly constitutes an offence to be investigated by the police. In the circumstances, it cannot be said that respondent Nos. 2 and 3 have to file a suit for recovery of the amount. The criminal petition fails and it is accordingly dismissed. A.
