For Petitioner : Mr.A.Rajaram For R-1 and R-2 : Mr.P.Kannithevan Govt. Advocate (Crl.Side) O R D E R Seeking a direction to the second respondent police to register a case on the basis of the complaint given by the petitioner, dated 18.04.2011, the petitioner has come up with this petition. 2. A perusal of the complaint would go to show that the petitioner/de-facto complainant borrowed a sum of Rs.5,00,000/- from the third respondent. But later on, he did not repay the same. Subsequently, compromise was effected between the parties. As per the terms of the compromise memo, the entire amount has been paid to the third respondent. Now the third respondent has denied the payment of the same to him. This according to the petitioner amounts to cheating. 3. Since the transactions between the parties appears to be purely civil in nature and since the petitioner has got alternative remedy either by way of approaching the learned Magistrate concerned under Section 156 Cr.P.C., or by way of approaching the Superintendent of Police under Section 154 Cr.P.C and, the question of issuing direction as prayed for in this petition, does not arise. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 4.
