On 13.05.2009 at night the accused Surjit Singh with the help of Vijay Kumar, Lamberdar brought 5000 pucca bricks and threw in the above said land with the intention of occupying that land. When the panchayat asked them then Crl. Misc No. M-18822 of 2009 2 the above accused threatened to kill the complainant and also used unparliamentary language. Both the accused threatened and exhorted that if anyone interfered in their possession, he would be eliminated. The accused are having an intentions to grab the land of the Gram Panchayat. Learned counsel has submitted that no action has been taken on the representations P-5 and P-4 addressed to Senior Superintendent of Police, Ferozepur and SDM Fazilika respectively and thus a direction needs to be issued to respondent No. 2 for registering a criminal case.

The petitioner has an effective remedy available to him by way of proceedings under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. The petition being devoid of merit, is hereby dismissed. 15.07.2009 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE
