Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.O.MANOHER REDDY Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR HOME The Court at the stage of admission made the following : ORDER:. Heard. Petitioner herein, seeks declaration that the action of the respondent in not completing the investigation in Crime No. 65 of 2004, registered on 30.6.2004 as illegal. It appears that there are some disputes between the borrower of Tippers from the petitioner, and the third parties, regarding the payment of certain installments with respect to some Proclainers. The grievance of the petitioner is that he has nothing to do with others problems. He had simply given two Tippers on hire to one Mr. B. Sanjeeva Reddy, and because of failure on the part of Mr. B. Sanjeeva Reddy, along with his articles the Tippers belongs to the petitioner were also taken away by the another person by name Sk. Basheed. Consequently, the petitioner gave a complaint and the same was numbered as Crime No. 65 of 2004 on 30.6.2004, for an offence under Sections 143, 341, 342, and 384 IPC but, so far, no action has been initiated. No counter affidavit has been filed and the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondent seeks time for filing counter affidavit. However, it is to be seen that in such cases, as and when a complaint had been made by any citizen and when a crime number was registered, the respondent shall initiate necessary action and investigate into the matter and further steps have to be taken appropriately. Therefore, the respondent is directed to conduct and complete the investigation as expeditiously as possible, if not conducted and completed so far, preferably within a period of three months, form the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above direction, this Writ Petition is closed. No costs. _________________ D.S.R. VARMA, J DATED: 02.03.2005 Ka To 1.
