Order
02/09/2024
1. Dissatisfied with the progress and manner of the
investigation, the petitioner (complainant) seeks issuance of
directions to the respondents to conduct a fair
inquiry/investigation regarding FIR No.118/2024 dated
02.08.2024, registered under Sections 115(2), 127(2), 134,
303(2) and 333 of BNS, 2023 at Police Station Desuri, District Pali.
2. Heard.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner argues that the
investigating agency is not proceeding in a fair and just manner
and is intentionally stalling the investigation after registration of
FIR.
[2024:RJ-JD:36335] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-5866/2024]
4. Learned Public Prosecutor appears on service of advance
copy of the petition and accepts notice on behalf of the State. He
opposes the petition arguing that once FIR was registered, law will
take its own course.
5. Be that as it may, in my opinion, the petitioner ought to have
availed of other available legal remedies for redressal of his
grievance before approaching this Court. Ordinarily, in cases of
grievances arising from unfair or improper investigation of an FIR,
the aggrieved person can seek recourse by approaching a superior
police officer as per Section 30 Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha
Sanhita, 2023. If the grievance remains unaddressed, one can
then approach a Magistrate of competent jurisdiction under
Section 175(3) Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, who
can seek submission of a report by the police. Reference may also
be had to Apex Court judgment in Sakiri Vasu versus State of
U.P. and Others1.
6. In the premise, instant petition is disposed of with liberty to
approach the appropriate forum for redressal of grievance, as
aforesaid.
7. Pending application(s), if any, shall also stand disposed of.
