Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Government Advocate.
This petition has been filed seeking a direction to the Investigating Officer/Agency to conduct fair and proper investigation in respect of First Information Report dated 12.12.2022 lodged at Case Crime No.0528/2022, under sections 147, 323, 504, 506, 427 & 376-D of I.P.C. and section 3/4 of Protection of Children from Sexual Offices Act, Police Station-Lonar, District Hardoi.
We have perused the averments made in the writ petition and are not convinced that any direction, as has been prayed for by the petitioner in this writ petition, can be granted in these proceedings. The Supreme Court in the case of Sudhir Bhaskarrao Tambe vs. Hemant Yashwant Dhage and others, reported in (2016) 6 SCC 277 relying upon an earlier judgment of the Supreme Court in the case of Sakiri Vasu vs. State of U.P. and others, reported in (2008) 2 SCC 469 has held that this Court normally should not entertain such petitions for the reason that complainant in such situations is at liberty to avail the alternative remedy by approaching the Magistrate concerned under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C.
Accordingly, we are not inclined to entertain this writ petition, which is hereby disposed of with the observation that it will be open to the petitioner to approach the Magistrate concerned by moving an application under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. If any such application is moved by the petitioner/complainant, the same shall be dealt in accordance with law by the Magistrate concerned.
