There is no necessity of going into all the details. Though the Sub-Inspector of Police, Atchampet Police Station, has filed a detailed counter affidavit stating that there was delay in conducting the investigation, the learned Government Pleader for Home, on instructions, submits that the Deputy Superintendent of Police, Sattenapalli, Guntur, the 2nd respondent, investigated into the subject crime and filed a report before the Court concerned stating the allegations made in the complaint as false. In view of the submission made by the learned Government Pleader, nothing survives in this writ petition for further adjudication. The writ petition is, accordingly, closed. However, the petitioner is not precluded from availing the remedies available to him as per law. _____________ C.V.RAMULU,J 21.11.2008 v v
