THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE K.SURENDER
CRIMINAL PETITION NO.7023 OF 2017
ORDER:
This Criminal Petition under Section 482 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure, 1973 (for short 'Cr.P.C.'), is filed by the
petitioners/accused Nos.3 and 4 to quash the proceedings
against them in Crime No.333 of 2017 of Medchal Police Station,
Cyberabad, Ranga Reddy for the offences under Sections 406,
420, 464, 506 and 120(B) of Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') on
the basis of private complaint filed by the respondent Nos.1 to 4.
2. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would submit
that, the only ground on which the petitioners are agitating
before this Court is that, the directions of the Honble Supreme
Court in Priyanka Srivastava and Another vs. State of Uttar
Pradesh & others 1 was not followed. As seen from the
complaint, no affidavit was filed in accordance with the directions
of the Hon'ble Supreme Court. Further, learned counsel would
submit that in the recent judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court
(2015) 6 SCC 287
in Babu Venkatesh and Others vs. State of Karnataka and
Another 2 had quashed the proceedings for the reason of
non-compliance of directions of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in
Priyanka Srivastava's case (1 supra). The non filing of the
affidavit is not disputed by the counsel for the complainant.
Accordingly, Crime No.333 of 2017 of Medchal Police Station,
Cyberabad, Ranga Reddy is hereby quashed.
3. Recording the said submission, the Criminal Petition is
allowed. However, the complainant can work out the remedies by
following due procedure of law.
Miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall stand
closed.
