BAIDYANATH SAH, S/O LATE RAJ BANSHI SAH, R/O VILLAGE-PHULKAHA, P.S.-SHYAMPUR BHATAHA, DISTRICT-SHEOHAR. ……………RESPONDENTS. ----------- 3 21.01.2010 In this writ application petitioner alleges inaction of the police on his complaint. He submits that respondent no. 8 is younger brother with whom there is property dispute. On account of some incident he has filed case against respondent no. 8, but the concerned police is not taking any step in the matter. On the other hand, leaned counsel for the respondents submits that Shyampur Bhataha P.S. Case No. 14 of 2006 which the petitioner had instituted was fully investigated and chargesheet was submitted in the same in 2006 itself. He also submits that the petitioner has not lodged any subsequent complaint before the police against respondent no. 8 and nothing else 2 has been brought to the notice of the police enabling the police to hold investigation in the matter. On the other hand, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has lodged another complaint before the police on 23.12.2008 which has not been taken notice of by the police. It goes without saying that if any information is lodged with the police, the police is duty bound to hold impartial investigation and submit a report to the concerned court for any further action, if necessary. This includes the complaint filed by the petitioner also. This writ application is, therefore, disposed of with the observation that as and when any complaint is received by the concerned police from the petitioner the same should be investigated objectively and report should be submitted to the concerned court/authority in the matter for necessary action. The writ application is disposed of thus. Arvind/ (J. N. Singh, J.)
