CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJBIR SEHRAWAT

Present:-       Mr. Chetan Sehgal, Advocate,
                for the petitioner.

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.
