HON’BLE Dr. JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR Criminal Petition No.7626 of 2014 Date: 16-7-2014 Between Ch.Dayakar Reddy and 3 others … Petitioners/ Accused 1 to 4 and State of Telangana, Through Atmakur PS, Rep. by Public Prosecutor, High Court … Respondent Bokka Roshi Reddy … Respondent/
De facto Complainant
HON’BLE Dr. JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR Criminal Petition No.7626 of 2014 Order:
The petitioners/accused 1 to 4 seek for the quashment of First Information Report (FIR) in Crime No.47 of 2013 on the file of Atmakur (M) Police Station, Nalgonda District. They allegedly committed the offences under Sections 447 and 427 read with Section 34 IPC.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners did not commit the offences, as alleged by the 2nd respondent/de facto complainant.
3. Where the investigation is at the threshold on the complaint, it would be appropriate to permit the prosecution to proceed with the complaint. However, where it is contended by the petitioners that the contents of the complaint are false, it would be just and reasonable to restrain Police from arresting the petitioners during the pendency of the investigation.
4. Accordingly, this criminal petition is disposed of granting liberty to Police to proceed with the investigation in Crime No.47 of 2013 on the file of Atmakur (M) Police Station, Nalgonda District. Police, however, are restrained from arresting the petitioners/accused 1 to 4 during the pendency of the investigation.
The miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this petition shall stand closed.
