      THIS WRIT PETITION (CRIMINAL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION
ON   29.06.2022,      THE   COURT   ON   THE   SAME   DAY   DELIVERED   THE
FOLLOWING:
 W.P.Crl.No.515/2021                           2



                                 JUDGMENT

The petitioner has approached this Court with the following

reliefs:

"i) Issue a writ in the nature of mandamus, order or direction directing the 2nd respondent to register a Crime on the basis of Exhibit P3 complaint and conduct investigation in accordance with law forthwith;

ii) To pass any other and such other orders as this Hon'ble Court deem fit to pass in the nature and circumstances of the case.

iii) to award the cost of this proceedings."

2. Ext.P3 complaint was submitted by the petitioner before

the 3rd respondent, highlighting the incident occurred on 01.09.2021

at 12.00 noon. Five persons, one among them in the uniform of

Railway Police, trespassed into the house of the petitioner and

abused his mother. It is also alleged that they have taken

photographs of the mother and child of the petitioner. According to

the petitioner no action is being taken by the 3 rd respondent on

Ext.P3 complaint. The writ petition was submitted in such

circumstances. The learned Government Pleader upon instructions

submitted that on the basis of the aforesaid complaint preliminary

enquiry was conducted and it did not reveal any cognizable offence.

In such circumstances, I am of the view that, the prayer sought for

by the petitioner need not be considered at this juncture. Grievance

of the petitioner can be highlighted before the Jurisdictional

Magistrate by submitting a private complaint in this regard. In such

circumstances, this Writ Petition is closed, leaving open the remedy

of the petitioner to file a private complaint.
