THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.2670 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner claims to have submitted a complaint before the Station House Officer, Nandaluru P.S., Kadapa Distirct, 1st respondent herein on 14.11.2009 alleging that respondents 4 to 6 have threatened him with dire consequences on 12.11.2009. He made a reference to similar acts that are said to have taken place on earlier occasion. His grievance is that the 1st respondent is not taking any action nor registering any crime and seeks directions in this regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Home. The petitioner no doubt submitted a complaint to the 1st respondent alleging certain criminal acts against respondents 4 to 6. The 1st respondent is required to take necessary steps in accordance with the procedure prescribed under Cr.P.C. Even assuming that there was inaction on the part of the 1st respondent, the petitioner is not without any remedy. He can file a complaint under Section 200 of Cr.P.C. before the concerned Criminal Court, which in turn can direct the Station House Officer to investigate into the matter. In such an event, the parties would be in a position to participate and express their view points. The trial Court also would have a complete picture before it. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of leaving it open to the petitioner to avail the remedy under Section 200 Cr.P.C. So far as the threat expressed by the petitioner is concerned, the 1st respondent shall take necessary steps in this regard. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 16.02.2010 JSU THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.2670 of 2010 Date: 16.02.2010 JSU
