The petitioner seeks a direction from this Court that cause of death of her husband, who was posted as a constable under C.I.S.F. unit, I.O.C. Barauni in the District of Begusarai, should be enquired into. 3. Admittedly, constable Suresh Singh, husband of the petitioner, died on 16.3.1997 while still in harness under C.I.S.F. After his death, an F.I.R. was lodged regarding his unnatural death and the case was thoroughly investigated taking it to its logical conclusion. Because of the death of the husband of the petitioner, while in harness, she has 2 appointed on compassionate ground and all other death cum retrial dues have been paid to the petitioner. She is working under C.I.S.F. in the rank of constable in view of the aforesaid compassionate appointment. 4. Apparently, the petitioner did not file any complaint petition in the Court or protest petition in criminal case alleging hands of some other persons responsible for the death of her husband. When the investigation of the criminal case has been taken to its logical conclusion, then after seven years of the death of her husband, the petitioner has directly filed the present writ petition seeking a direction for further enquiry. 5. In the considered opinion of this Court, the petitioner, having not availed of all the alternative remedy available to her under the law, and having taken all the benefits in view of the death of her husband, has been ill advised to file the present writ petition before this Court. 6. The writ petition has no merit and is accordingly dismissed. No costs. Anand Kr. ( Birendra Prasad Verma, J.)
