FOR HOME The Court at the stage of admission made the following ORAL ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Government Pleader for Home, appearing on behalf of the respondents 1 and 2. 2. The grievance of the petitioner is that in spite of the complaint dated 19-03-2005 lodged by her on various grounds against the Khaja Moinuddin before the second respondent-the Station House Officer, Police Station Town-II, Nizamabad, no action is being taken so far. 3. It is needless to mention that as and when a complaint is lodged, the police are investigating into the matter and to take appropriate action in accordance with law. 4. However, having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it expedient to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the second respondent to investigate into the matter and take appropriate action in accordance with law. 5. With the above observation and direction, the writ petition is disposed of, at the stage of admission. No costs. _______________ D.S.R.VARMA, J 25th March, 2005 Note: Issue CC in three days (B/o.)
