IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No. 70100-M of 2006 DATE OF DECISION : 10.11.2006 Dhan Kaur .... PETITIONER Versus State of Punjab and others ..... RESPONDENTS CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr. Ranjan Lakhanpal, Advocate, for the petitioner. * * * Petitioner Dhan Kaur has filed this petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for registration of a criminal case against respondents No.5 to 7 on the basis of the complaint filed by her against her brother. I have heard counsel for the petitioner and perused the petition as well as the complaint. In the complaint, it has been alleged by the petitioner that her brother, on false pretext, had obtained her signatures on sale deed. It is not disputed that the sale deed pertains to 10 biswas of land and the same was registered before Sub Registrar. Keeping in view the facts of the case, it appears that the dispute is purely of civil nature. Thus, I am not inclined to issue the aforesaid direction in exercise of the inherent power of this Court under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, as in my opinion, the petitioner has alternative civil as well as criminal remedy. Dismissed. November 10, 2006 ( SATISH KUMAR MITTAL ) ndj JUDGE
