THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.8143 of 2011 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioner seeks a mandamus declaring the action of the fifth respondent – Station House Officer, Golconda Police Station, Golconda, Hyderabad, in not completing the investigation in Crime No.19 of 2010, as illegal. The petitioner has filed a private complaint under Section 200 Cr.P.C. before the learned XVII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Nampally, Hyderabad, alleging that the sixth respondent has copied his registered trademark and selling the products by using it and cheating the purchasers of the products. On such complaint, the learned Magistrate referred the same to the police under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. for investigation. Thereupon, the police registered it in Crime No.19 of 2010 for the offences under Sections 451 and 420 IPC and Sections 102 and 103 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, on 22.01.2010. It is the grievance of the petitioner that in spite of registering the crime on 22.01.2010, the respondents are not completing the investigation. On instructions, it is submitted by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for respondents 1 to 5 that with very same allegations, O.S.No.156 of 2010 was filed by the petitioner against the sixth respondent in the Court of III Additional Chief Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad, and he obtained injunction orders in I.A.No.1244 of 2010 against the sixth respondent. It is also submitted that respondents 1 to 5 are investigating into the matter and taking all possible steps to complete the investigation so as to file a final report under Section 173 Cr.P.C. As it is stated that the investigation in Crime No.19 of 2010 is in progress and respondents 1 to 5 – police are taking all possible steps to complete the investigation and file final report under Section 173 Cr.P.C., without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to direct the police to complete the investigation in the matter and file final report as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of three (3) months from today. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 6th APRIL, 2011. kvni
