RAJBIR SEHRAWAT, J. (Oral)
1. This is a contempt petition filed under Sections 10 and 12 of the Contempt of Courts Act, for punishing the respondents for disobeying the notification No.159 dated 22.09.2023 issued in pursuance of the directions issued by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the judgment dated 31.07.2023 passed in Crl. Appeal No.2207-2023.
2. In view of the facts and circumstances of the case, as well as, the nature of the order itself, for determination of contempt qua that order; a lot of disputed questions would be required to be adjudicated upon. However, adjudication of the disputed questions of fact would not even be appropriate in the contempt proceedings. Hence, the present petition is dismissed.
3. However, the petitioner would be at liberty to avail any other alternate remedy for initiating action against the police official(s), but in accordance with law.
