Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. The grievance of the petitioners is that the police are not properly investigating Jakkanpur Police Station Case No.54/10 registered on 16th of March, 2010 for the offences under section 304B/201/34 of the Penal Code. It is submitted that as a matter of fact, the accused of the aforesaid case has lodged a case against the petitioners, vide Buddha Colony P.S. Case No.93/10 on 11th of June, 2010. It is further submitted that the police are not properly investigating the aforesaid Jakkanpur Police Station Case No.54/10. - 2 - Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State refutes the allegation and submits that the investigations of both the cases are continuing as has also been stated in the counter affidavit. In the above circumstances, I am not inclined to interfere with the matter. However, it goes without saying that both the aforesaid cases i.e., Jakkanpur P.S. Case No.54/10 and Buddha Colony P.S. Case No.93/10 be investigated expeditiously without unnecessary delay. Moreover, as regards the grievance of the petitioners with regard to the investigation, if any, it will be open for them to bring it to the notice of the concerned Superintendent of Police by way of representation, which would be considered in accordance with law. The writ application stands disposed of. PNM (Shailesh Kumar Sinha, J.)
