THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE K.SURENDER
CRIMINAL PETITION No.866 OF 2023
O R D E R:
This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure, 1973 (for short 'Cr.P.C.') by the petitioners-
respondent Nos.2 to 9 to quash the proceedings against them in
D.V.C.No.47 of 2022 pending on the file of Principal Judicial
Magistrate of First Class at Sircilla, Rajanna Sircilla District.
2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners-respondents and
learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the respondent - State.
Perused the record.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioners confined his prayer to
dispense with the personal appearance of petitioners - respondent
Nos.2 to 9.
4. Thus, having regard to the facts and circumstances of the
case, the attendance of the petitioners - respondent Nos.2 to 9 is
dispensed with in D.V.C.No.47 of 2022 pending on the file of
Principal Judicial Magistrate of First Class at Sircilla, Rajanna Sircilla
District, when represented by their counsel on record. The Crl.Petition No.866 of 2023
attendance of the petitioners is dispensed with subject to filing
affidavits by them stating that in their absence the proceedings
conducted by their counsel will not be disputed by them in any
manner and also they shall not dispute their identity. However, the
petitioners shall appear before the learned Magistrate as and when
their presence is required. In the event of the petitioners failure to
appear when the Court directs, this order dispensing their
attendance would stand cancelled.
5. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Needless to
say, in the event of the petitioners filing an application under Section
239 of Cr.P.C. seeking discharge, the concerned Court shall dispose
it off on merits in view of the judgment rendered by the Hon'ble
Supreme Court in case of Bhushan Kumar and another vs. State
(NCT of Delhi) and another1 within a period of four (04) weeks
from the date of filing, after hearing arguments on both sides.
Miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall stand closed.
