CRM No. M-13106 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CRM No. M-13106 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 21.8.2009 Prem Kumar Goel ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab and others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Sameer Sachdeva, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Shailesh Gupta, DAG, Punjab. Rajan Gupta, J. The only prayer in this petition is to direct the police to conduct investigation into the complaint, Annexure P-5, preferred by the petitioner. Learned counsel for the State (on the instructions from ASI Rupinder Singh, who is present in Court) submits that the complaint, Annexure P-5 has been examined by the police and no substance has been found in the same. According to the State counsel, decision has been taken not to register a case on the basis of the said complaint. In view of the statement of the learned State counsel, it is evident that the prayer made in this petition for inquiry/investigation into the complaint, has already been examined by the police. Learned counsel for the petitioner, however, submits that, a direction can be issued by this court in its inherent jurisdiction to the CRM No. M-13106 of 2009 2 police to register an FIR. However, this submission of the counsel is misconceived in view of the law laid down in Sakiri Vasu v. State of U.P. & others, 2008 (1) R.C.R. 392. The petitioner has an effective remedy available under Section 156 (3) Cr.P.C. or by way of complaint. There is no merit in the present petition. The same is hereby dismissed.
