ORDER (ORAL)
This petition has been filed by the petitioner with a prayer that
the Court should direct the investigation into the subject matter of petition by
an independent agency, preferably CBI, and should direct police officials to
take action against other respondents who were trying to unlawfully possess
the property of the petitioner.
The petitioner is a resident of jhuggi basti called Punjabi Basti,
Anand Parbat situated on government land. Alongside the jhuggi of petitioner
there is some vacant land and on the other side, there is jhuggi of Dilip
respondent no. 12. Respondents No. 10, 11 & 13 are family members of Dilip
and respondents no. 14 & 15 are other residents of jhuggi basti. As per the
facts revealed from the record and documents, the petitioner tried to take
possession of this land belonging to DDA and it was objected by respondent
no. 12. The police was called and thereafter started a series of complaint
made by the petitioner and his wife and threats given to the neighbours i.e.
Dilip and others. The petitioner alleged that he was injured in one of the
incidents. He went to hospital for getting his MLC done in hospital. The
doctor conducting MLC gave opinion that it was a self-inflected injury. PCR
was called at the spot 2-3 times because of the quarrel over issue of
possession of this vacant land and police after verification concluded that it
was the 'petitioner' who was trying to encroach upon DDA land. The
petitioner has already filed a complaint case under Section 200 Cr.P.C. before
the MM. He has also filed a Civil Suit.
Under these circumstances, I find that this petition filed by the
petitioner was not maintainable and the petitioner was misusing the process
of law in order to build up pressure for purpose of encroaching upon DDA
land/government land. The petition is hereby dismissed being a frivolous
petition.
