Crl. Misc. No. M-21972 of 2011 (O & M) 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M-21972 of 2011 (O & M) DATE OF DECISION: August 09, 2011 Promila .........PETITIONER(S) VERSUS State of Haryana and others ........ RESPONDENT(S) CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA Present: Mr. Karan Singh, Advocate, for the petitioner(s). AJAI LAMBA, J. (ORAL) This petition filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. prays for issuance of directions to respondents no. 1 to 3 to investigate case FIR No. 371 dated 11.06.2011 under Sections 323/498-A/34 IPC, P.S. City Jind. It has been pleaded that on perusal of FIR collectively considered with the Medico Legal Report, indicates commission of offence under Section 307 IPC as also under Section 406 IPC. Despite such facts, Section 307 IPC is not being invoked in pursuance of a tainted investigation. It has been pleaded that the injured Promila remained hospitalized from 27.06.2011 till 07.07.2011. Both the legs were fractured as the said person was thrown from the roof of the house. I have considered the contention of the learned counsel. Investigation is still going on and, therefore, it would not be appropriate for this Court, in peculiar facts and circumstances of the case, to issue directions to invoke Sections 307 and 406 IPC. However, the investigation is required to be fair, above board and is also required to be concluded at the earliest. The nature of injuries, as projected before this Crl. Misc. No. M-21972 of 2011 (O & M) 2 Court and the manner in which the offence took place, do indicate gravity. Be that as it may, Superintendent of Police, Jind is directed to consider a copy of this petition as a representation on behalf of the petitioners and pass appropriate orders as are required in law. It should be ensured that the investigation is fair and above board so as not to defeat the ends of justice. Disposed of accordingly. 09.08.2011 (AJAI LAMBA) shivani JUDGE
