Quash petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. against proceedings in C.C.No.123 of 2019 (XVI Additional Metropolitan Magistrate, Cyberabad at Rajendranagar) for offences under Sections 332, 504, 323, 506 r/w 34 IPC; complainant P. Raiesh, Police Constable PC No. 4941 of P.S. Raidurgam. Dismissed for non-prosecution as counsel could not secure instructions from petitioners; no merits decided; no case law cited; miscellaneous applications, if any, stand dismissed.
What did the court decide?
Since learned counsel for the petitioners could not secure any instructions from the petitioners to proceed with the matter on merits and expressed inability to proceed further, the Court held it had no option except to dismiss the petition, and accordingly dismissed the Criminal Petition for non-prosecution. The quashing question was not adjudicated on merits.
