PUBLIC PROSECUTOR 3 The Court made the following: ORDER: This Criminal Petition, under Section 528 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhitha, 2023, has been filed by the petitioner/Accused, seeking quashment of proceedings against her in Crl.M.P.No.2988 of 2025 in S.T.C.No.32 of 2024, on the file of II Additional Judicial Magistrate of I Class, Tenali. 2. Heard Sri S. Bala Mohan Ranga, learned counsel for the petitioner, and Ms. K. Priyanka Lakshmi, learned Assistant Public Prosecutor who takes notice on behalf of the State. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the trial Court directed the petitioner to appear before the Court on 25.06.2025. Due to ill health, the petitioner could not appear before the Court, and on her behalf, her counsel appeared and submitted an absent petition seeking to condone her absence. The said petition was dismissed and a non-bailable warrant was issued against the petitioner. After the police executed the warrant and produced her before the trial Court on 06.07.2025, the trial Court remanded her to judicial custody. The petitioner moved a bail application, which was allowed on execution of a personal bond of Rs. 10,000/- with a single surety, subject to payment of Rs. 1,00,000/- to respondent No. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the condition to pay an amount of Rs. 1,00,000/- to respondent No.2 is unfair and finally prays that the petition may be allowed. 4 4. Learned Assistant Public Prosecutor submits that the Court may pass appropriate orders. 5. Considering the submissions made, this Court does not find any force in the submissions regarding the impugned order passed by the learned trial Judge while releasing the petitioner on bail on the condition of payment of Rs. 1,00,000/- to respondent No. 2. There is no merit in the contention that an undertaking was given to deposit the amount into the Court. The learned trial Judge rightly passed the order directing the petitioner to pay the amount to the complainant. 6. In view of the above, the criminal petition is disposed of. However, the petitioner is at liberty to express her grievance before the trial Court. Consequently, miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________________________ Dr. VENKATA JYOTHIRMAI PRATAPA, J Date: 20.08.2025 MH 5 54 HON’BLE DR.
