IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.826 of 2007 MEHDI HASAN KHAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 4 19.11.2008. Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner lost his mobile phone having mobile no. 9931975255 on 7.12.2006. He asserts that he lodged a Sanha on 7.12.2006 but police by mistake while recording the sanha in diary entered the date as 17.12.2006. It transpired that respondent no.8, namely, Sri Kant, a school teacher was threatened for ransom for which he lodged No. 15.8.2006. Police during investigation found that the threat calls were made from petitioner’s mobile phone. Contention of the petitioner is that as he himself lodged the Sanha regarding missing of his mobile phone to the police on 7.11.2006, police should not chase him if any call is made to someone for ransom from aforesaid mobile phone. By filing counter affidavit the State counsel disputes the fact that petitioner had lodged any sanha with the police on 7.11.2006 and the copy of sanha, annexure 1 is a manufactured document which is not in the records of police station concerned. Having heard the parties, this Court observes that it would be open to the petitioner to file a representation before the S.P. Muzaffarpur or the I.O. of the case in support of his innocence. The concerned police official will dispose of the same in accordance with law within three weeks of its receipt. For representing before the officials, no coercive steps - 2 - would be taken against the petitioner in Chatowani ps case no. 144 of 2006 for three weeks from today only. The writ petition is disposed of with aforesaid observations. Shashi. (S.P.Singh,J).
