Commissioner of Police City of Mumbai and ors. ... Respondents ----- Mr. A.P.Mundargi with Mr. S.V.Marwadi i/b ARA Law for the Petitioner. Mr. A.S.Gadkari, APP for the Respondent/ State. ----- CORAM : A.M. KHANWILKAR and U.D. SALVI, JJ. DATE : 31 st August, 2010. P.C. 1 Heard the learned counsel for the parties. 2 The grievance in this petition is that the complaint filed by the Petitioner before the local police station has not been taken to its logical end in spite of the seriousness of the allegations contained therein. On the other hand, it is noticed that the local police after recording statement of the concerned persons, was of the view that the matter essentially is in the nature of civil dispute between the parties. It is in this background, the Petitioner has rushed to this Court for issuing direction to the local 2 38 wp.1377.10 police or Economic Offence Wing as the case may be, to register FIR and proceed in the matter in accordance with law. In our opinion, the Petitioner has alternative and efficacious remedy of filing private complaint in relation to the incident in question. If such complaint is filed, it will have to be proceeded in accordance with law irrespective of the opinion of the local police or Economic Offence Wing, which is placed on record before us. The concerned Court will have to examine all aspects of the matter and pass appropriate order as may be advised. Petition disposed of accordingly. 3 All questions are left open. [ U.D. SALVI, J ] [ A.M. KHANWILKAR, J ]
