THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.32458 of 2010 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioner seeks a mandamus by way of directions to the first respondent – Station House Officer, Dwaraka Tirumala Police Station, West Godavari District, to produce the paddy cut by respondents 2 to 6 from the land covered by Survey No.196 of Ramannagudem Revenue Area, Dwaraka Tirumala Mandal, West Godavari District. Based on the complaint lodged by the petitioner complaining that the paddy grown by her was illegally cut and carried away by respondents 2 to 6, the first respondent registered it in Crime No.158 of 2010. It is the grievance of the petitioner that appropriate directions be given to the first respondent to produce the paddy cut by respondents 2 to 6. On instructions, it is submitted by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for the first respondent that there is a dispute with regard to possession of the land in question between the petitioner and respondents 2 to 6 and the matter is under investigation. Merely because there is a complaint by the petitioner to the effect that the paddy grown by her was cut and carried away by respondents 2 to 6, no direction can be issued at this stage. As it is stated by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for the first respondent that the matter is under investigation, I deem it appropriate to direct the first respondent to complete the investigation in Crime No.158 of 2010 and take appropriate steps thereon as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of two (2) weeks from today. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 24th DECEMBER, 2010. kvni
