                        THE HON'BLE SMT. JUSTICE K. SUJANA

                         CRIMINAL PETITION No.6071 of 2025

ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 582 of the Bharatiya

Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (for short, 'the BNSS') by the

petitioners/respondent Nos.2 to 7 to quash the proceedings against them in

D.V.C.No.5 of 2024 pending on the file of Additional Judicial First Class

Magistrate at Sanga Reddy.

2. Heard Sri P.Bose Babu, learned counsel for the petitioners and Sri

Arun Kumar Doddla, learned Additional Public Prosecutor for respondent

No.1 - State. Perused the record.

3. In the light of the judgment in Gaddameedi Nagamani v. State of

Telangana 1 a petition to quash the proceedings in Domestic Violence Case

is not maintainable, as Section 29 of the Protection of Women from Domestic

Violence Act, 2005 affords an efficacious remedy by way of an appeal against

the act of the Court below in taking cognizance and numbering the D.V.C.

4. In view of the above, the petitioners are at liberty to avail the said

alternative remedy.

5. However, in view of the request made by the learned counsel for the

petitioners, the appearance of the petitioner Nos.1 to 6 herein/respondent

Nos.2 to 7 in D.V.C.No.5 of 2024 pending on the file of Additional Judicial

First Class Magistrate at Sanga Reddy, is dispensed with, except on the

dates whenever their presence is required by the trial Court, and they shall

2015 (2) ALD (CRL.) 764

be represented by their counsel on every date of hearing and in case of

default, this order gets vacated automatically.

6. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of.

Miscellaneous applications, if any pending, shall also stand closed.
