No. 221 of 2008 ========================== Dated this the 6th day of February, 2008. O R D E R The grievance of the petitioner, who is the de facto complainant in Crime No. 254/2006 of Vanchiyoor Police Station registered for offences punishable under Sections 420, 406, 465, 468 and 471 IPC, is that even though the Sub Inspector of Police had virtually completed the investigation, the petitioner is apprehending the involvement of the higher ups in the police department in restraining the Sub Inspector of Police to file the final report. The statement filed by the Circle Inspector of Police shows that as per order dated 19.12.2007 of the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Admn.), Thiruvananthapuram, the investigation of the case was taken over by the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Control Room, Thiruvananthapuram City. The learned Public Prosecutor submits that the final report will be filed within three months from today. The statement filed by the Circle Inspector of Police does not mention the circumstances under which the investigation was entrusted with a higher official. Any way, since all these matters will be monitored by the learned Magistrate before whom the final report will be filed, I record the submission made on behalf of the Public Prosecutor and this Crl. M.C is closed with a direction to file the final report within two months from today. V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv V. RAMKUMAR , J. ========================== CRL.M.C.
