Judgment
Petitioner approached this Court by invoking the provisions under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. with a prayer to quash the proceedings
against him in D.V.C.No.2 of 2011 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Chevella, Ranga Reddy District.
Heard both sides.
Since the allegations against the petitioner are punishable under the provisions of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, this Court is not inclined to quash the proceedings against the petitioner at this stage.
In any event, taking into consideration the nature of allegations, wherein the question of identity of the petitioner does not arise, the presence of the petitioner before the court below is dispensed with except the dates on which the learned Magistrate insists for his appearance and he shall be properly represented through his counsel.
With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed along with the criminal petition shall stand closed. RAJA ELANGO, J __________________
