THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.5970 OF 2010
ORDER:
The petitioner approaches this Court with a prayer to quash the proceedings initiated against him in Crime No. 107 of 2010 on the file of the Station House Officer, Devanpally Police Station, Nizamabad District, wherein the petitioner was arrayed as Accused No.8 for the offences punishable under Sections 147, 148, 120-B, 121(A), 307, 347, 386, 506, 107, 115 read with 109, 114 and 149 of I.P.C. and 25 of Arms Act.
At the hearing, learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that the investigation has already been completed and charge sheet is also filed in the case.
In view of the fact that the investigation is already completed and charge sheet has also been filed in the case, the criminal petition has become infructuous.
The Criminal Petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. However, if the petitioner is aggrieved over filing of the charge sheet, he is at liberty to challenge the same in appropriate proceedings by invoking appropriate provision.
