IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc.-M No.37313 of 2011 (O&M) Date of Decision: December 14, 2011 Sukhwant Singh ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab & another ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RANJIT SINGH 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Mr.P.P.S.Duggall, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. The petitioner had approached this Court by way of CRM- M No.33631 of 2009 making an identical prayer for handing over the investigation in FIR No.28 dated 10.6.2011, under Sections 302 and 364 IPC to some independent agency. The alternative prayer was to direct respondent No.2 to constitute Special Investigation Team to undertake investigation of the said FIR. In response, State pointed out before this Court that Special Investigation Team has been constituted. It was also disclosed that Senior Superintendent of Police, Moga had not agreed with the investigation conducted by Gurmail Singh, SP(D), Moga and that is how he has constituted Special Investigation Team, which was to submit report after the investigation. The said Criminal Misc.Petition was accordingly disposed of as having become infructuous. Without disclosing the outcome of this investigation, another petition has now been filed making almost identical prayer for handing over the investigation to some independent agency. Criminal Misc.-M No.37313 of 2011 (O&M) : 2 : Alternatively, it is prayed that directions be issued to the trial Court to take cognizance under Section 190 Cr.P.C. When asked as to how this court can issue direction for the trial court to take cognizance that being a matter entirely within the power and discretion of the court concerned, the counsel prays for permission to withdraw this petition. The conduct of the petitioner in filing one petition after another in this manner is not appreciated. Once he has approached this court and Special Investigation Team was constituted as per his prayer, now asking for direction from this court for the trial court to take cognizance or to transfer investigation to some independent agency is not really called for and understood. The petition is accordingly dismissed. It is hope that the petitioner would resist from invoking the jurisdiction of this court time and again without any purpose.
