Pavan’s wife to withdraw plea


By S A Ishaqui
Hyderabad, Aug. 8: Ms Nandini, the first wife of film actor Pavan Kalyan, has decided to withdraw her revision petition filed in the Andhra Pradesh High Court against the orders of the first additional chief metropolitan magistrate court at Visakhapatnam.

Mr Mahender Reddy, counsel for the petitioner, on Friday submitted to Justice Yethirajulu that his client had filed a withdrawal petition.
The lower court dismissed a petition filed by Ms Nandini against Pavan Kalyan seeking his prosecution under Section 494 of IPC on February 25.

The lower court dismissed the petition with an observation that the complainant had failed to establish the ingredients required to constitute the offence under Section 494 of IPC. The court said the complainant also failed to prove that Pavan Kalyan married actor Renu Desai.
The High Court issued notices to Pavan Kalyan and his actor-brothers Chiranjeevi and Nagendra Babu and other family members on a revision petition.

There were reports that the actor’s family decided on a settlement with Ms Nandini as the stage has been set for Chiranjeevi’s ‘political arangetram’.

In the backdrop of these developments Ms Nandini’s parents decided to withdraw all cases filed against Pavan Kalyan. The court is yet to announce its decision on the withdrawal petition. However, there is another case of claiming maintenance pending with the High Court.
