This Court on 10.3.2014 has passed the following order:
"Pursuant to the order dated 5.3.2014 the Investigating Officers namely Ram Siya Maurya and Sri Zamil Mohammad Rawat are present. Separate affidavits have been filed by them through Sri Pankaj Saxena, learned Standing Counsel. It has been stated by Sri Saxena that on the F.I.R. lodged by the opposite party at Police Station, Piluwa, the investigation is being made but despite best efforts the Investigating Officer has not been able to arrest the accused persons named therein i.e. the applicant and the family members. It is further submitted that the proceedings under section 82/83 Cr.P.C. has also been undertaken.
Sri V.D. Agrawal and Ms. Sandhya Agrawal, Advocates have filed an application on behalf of Sri Arvind Kumar son of Basudev Singh for being impleaded as applicant no.2, which has been seriously objected to by Sri Neeraj Srivastava, Advocate holding brief of Sri H.M. Srivastava, learned counsel for the applicant. Apparently the objection raised by the applicant deserves to be sustained and there can be no impleadment of third party as applicant. However Sri Arvind Kumar can always be heard as an intervenor.
From the investigation carried out by the Investigating Officer of Police Station, Piluwa, it appears that serious efforts have not been made to arrest the accused persons. The Investigating Officer shall make serious efforts and to arrest the accused persons in the F.I.R. lodged at Police Station, Piluwa and further make serious efforts to recover the minor children of both the families.
