ORDER
18/02/2022 The instant miscellaneous petition has been filed by the
petitioner seeking direction for conducting fair investigation of the
FIR No.78/2021 registered at the P.S. Mundwa, District Nagaur for
the offences under Sections 498A, 406, 323 I.P.C. and Section 4 of
Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961.
The petitioner submitted an F.I.R. against certain persons
named in the F.I.R. for the aforesaid offences but according to the
(2 of 2) [CRLMP-7063/2021]
petitioner, the police authorities have not taken any action against
the accused persons.
This Court is of the opinion that in view of the
observations made and directions issued by the Hon'ble Apex Court
in the case of Sakiri Vasu Vs. State of U.P., AIR 2008 SC 907, no
person can be encouraged to directly approach this Court for
seeking direction of fair investigation and if he is aggrieved of any
lack of action by the police as regards the FIR which has been filed
by him/her, the appropriate course of action for the aggrieved
person is to approach the Magistrate having jurisdiction, who can
call for the report from the Investigating Officer and also instruct the
Investigating Officer to investigate the matter fairly. If the petitioner
is aggrieved by any inaction of the police, then she should move to
the appropriate Court in accordance with the directions issued by the
Apex Court in the aforesaid judgment. Thereafter the trial court shall
call for the report from the I.O. and issue appropriate direction in
consonance with the view expressed by the Hon'ble Apex Court.
Resultantly, the miscellaneous petition being bereft of any
force, is dismissed. The stay petition also stands dismissed.
