IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.1136 of 2007 BHAGWAT MANDAL Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 8 26.2.2009 KHAN The petitioner prays for early investigation of Pipra P.S.Case No.73 of 2007 dated 17.10.2007. The petitioner is the informant of the aforesaid case lodged under sections 302, 201,34 of the Penal Code. The main allegation was that a new born baby was thrown from the train in between Ekma and Supaul Railway Stations. Pipra Police in course of investigation found the case to be true. However, as the occurrence seemed to have taken place in a running train, the case was forwarded to the Rail Police, Saharsa on the instruction of S.D.P.O., Supaul. The Rail Police, however, returned the record, as according to it, the jurisdiction was one within the Pipra P.S.. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the investigation has been found to be true, the final report is not being submitted on account of the facts noted above. In this view of the matter, this writ petition is disposed of with an observation that the D.I.G. Kosi Range, Saharsa would take a decision whether the action of the Pipra Police in sending the record to Rail Police, Saharsa for taking further steps in the investigation is correct or not. The said decision would be taken within three weeks from the date of receipt/production a copy of this order. Both the police stations i.e. Pipra P.S. and Rail Police, Saharsa would abide by the decision of the D.I.G. Kosi Range, Saharsa so that the investigation would be brought to its logical conclusion at the earliest. (S.P.Singh,J) - 2 -
