BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI.PUZHAKKARA MUHAMMED THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 01/12/2006, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: R. BASANT, J. ------------------------------------------------- W.P.(c) NO. 26410 OF 2006-R ------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 1st day of December, 2006 JUDGMENT The petitioner complains that his grievance aired in Ext.P1 petition submitted by him to the Director, Vigilance and Anti Corruption Bureau, Trivandrum, has not been attended to. He contends that an F.I.R. must have been registered and an investigation must have been conducted into the allegations. 2. Notice was given to the learned Public Prosecutor. A statement has been filed by the respondent. The statement filed by the respondent shows that such action as is necessary on the grievance made in Ext.P1 has been taken. The allegation essentially is one of improper performance of official duty. I am unable to accept the contention that the complaint – Ext.P1 contains any specific allegation of any cognizable offence allegedly committed by the person against whom the complaint has been laid. In these circumstances, I am satisfied that this writ petition deserves to be dismissed and no further directions need be issued. 3. This writ petition is, in these circumstances, dismissed.
