A Bench headed by Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan, and comprising Justice R V Raveendran, while disposing off a petition filed by the Andhra Pradesh Government, said the observations made by the Andhra Pradesh High Court or apex court will not come in way of the proceedings before the first additional metropolitan magistrate, Hyderabad.
Senior counsel T R Andhyarjuna and S S Prasad, appearing for the state, submitted before the Bench that the magistrate had refused to proceed with the complaint on the ground that the matter was pending before the apex court.
Senior counsel Nageshawara Rao, appearing for Margadarsi Financers, owned by Ramoji Rao, contended that there was a delay on the part of the petitioners in moving the apex court. The state Government had challenged the order of the high court which had upheld the trial court decision stalling the proceedings saying that the matter was pending before the apex court.
