Rakesh Kumar and another ....Petitioners Versus Senior Superintendent of Police, Tarn Taran and others ...Respondents CORAM : Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present:- Mr. Bikramjit Arora, Advocate for the petitioners. RAJESH BINDAL J. **** This is a petition for issuance of a direction to respondents No.1 and 2 to taken action against respondent No.3 and other persons under the appropriate sections of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the petitioners states that petitioners made two complaints dated 26.8.2009 and 16.9.2009 (Annexures P4 and P5) to the Superintendent of Police, Tarn Taran, but no action has been initiated against the culprits. Keeping in view the law laid down by Hon'ble the Supreme Court in Sakiri Vasu Vs. State of U.P. and others 2008 (1) RCR (Criminal) 392 such a petition for direction to the police for registration of FIR could not be entertained as the petitioner has effective alternative remedy under Section 156 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and as such this Court would not like to interfere in the matter in its extra ordinary jurisdiction. Faced with this situation, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that he may be permitted to withdraw the present petition. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed as withdrawn, however, with liberty to the petitioners to avail of their alternative remedy in accordance with law. (RAJESH BINDAL) 25.9.2009 JUDGE Reema
