IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL STAY APPLICATION NO.3661 OF 2008 IN CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO.461 OF 2008 Smt. Chandra Kanta Kalra …...Petitioner Versus State of Uttarakhand & five others …….Respondents Dated: 20th June, 2008 Hon’ble Prafulla C. Pant, J. Hon’ble Dharam Veer,J. Heard Sri S.S. Bhandari, learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri M.A. Khan, learned brief holder for the State/respondent nos.1, 2 & 3 as well as Sri Naresh Pant, learned counsel for respondent nos.5 & 6. By means of this writ petition, the petitioner has sought writ in the nature of mandamus directing the State to transfer the investigation in Case Crime No.198/2007 relating to the offences punishable under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 406 & 120-B I.P.C. registered with Police Station Dalanwala, District Dehradun. Brief facts of the case are that some loan was taken by the husband of the complainant (present petitioner) from U.P. Finance Corporation (hereinafter to be referred as U.P.F.C.), which remained unpaid and property was mortgaged to the U.P.F.C. by the debtor and when the loan was not repaid, U.P.F.C. appears to have exercised their power under Section 29 of the Finance Corporation, Act. However, the complainant (respondent no.3) by moving an application before Chief Judicial Magistrate, Dehradun under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C., got First Information Report lodged against the Officers of U.P.F.C. and the purchaser in auction of the property. After investigation, it appears that final report was submitted but reinvestigation was got ordered, which is on. Having considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties, in the above circumstances, we are not inclined to issue any direction in this matter for transfer of investigation. Therefore, the writ petition is dismissed summarily. (Stay Application No.3661/2008 is also dismissed). (Dharam Veer, J.) (Prafulla C.Pant, J.) 20.06.2008 Arti
