Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL * * * Present : Mr. Ramesh Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. * * * L. N. MITTAL, J. (Oral) : Nachhatar Kaur has filed this petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (in short, Cr. P.C.) for directing the police authorities to record cross version of the petitioner against Darshan Singh etc. as accused in FIR No.115, dated 28.06.2011 under Sections452, 323, 324, 148 and 149 IPC at Police Station Dakha, District Ludhiana, already registered against the petitioner party and to take action on statement of the petitioner to be recorded. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the case file. In view of judgment of Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Sakiri Vasu versus State of U.P., (2008) 2 SCC 409, the direction sought for is not required to be granted by this Court in exercise of inherent powers under Section 482 Cr.P.C because the petitioner has alternative efficacious remedy of approaching the Ilaqa Magistrate who has power to pass appropriate orders. In view of the aforesaid, but without meaning to express any opinion on merits of claim of the petitioner, the instant petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to approach the Ilaqa Magistrate for appropriate relief in accordance with law. 20th December, 2011 ( L. N. MITTAL ) 'raj' JUDGE
