Ravish, A.C. to G.A.-X ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL ORDER 5 27-06-2012 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State. The prayer of the petitioner in the writ petition is for a direction to the respondents to complete the investigation and submit charge-sheet against the culprits named in the first information report in connection with Rajnagar P.S. Case No.197 of 2010 dated 17.7.2010 registered under [STATUTE] and section 3(x) of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the Patna High Court CR. WJC No.827 of 2011 (5) dt.27-06-2012 2 petitioner that during the pendency of the writ petition the police has already submitted its report. The accused persons have not been sent up for trial. The petitioner has already filed a petition in the court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate against the improper investigation made by the police. In such situation, in my view, the writ petition has become infructuous. If a police report has already been laid in the court, it is for the Magistrate concerned to pass appropriate order after going through the case diary and documents submitted therewith. If the petitioner has still a grievance, he can pursue his petition, which may be treated as complaint. I find not merit in the writ petition. It is, accordingly, dismissed.
