Tasnim Aslam Shaikh, (g) Smt.Farjana Nazir Shaikh and (h) Shri Afzal Khan. 2. Smt. Bhosale, on instructions, further states that the charge-sheet could not be filed as the learned Metropolitan Magistrate is on leave as at present and we are further assured that by 18th December, 2009 the charge-sheet will be submitted before the Metropolitan Magistrate, 22nd Court, Andheri. 3. So far as the issue of protecting the petitioner’s interest is concerned, in our order dated 9/12/2009 we have recorded the decision taken by the Bank and placed on record in writing. In our view, the said decision taken by the Bank protects the interests of the petitioner as well as her sister. 4. The petitioner’s prayer to hand over the investigation to respondent no.3 or any other independent agency and to further direct respondent no.3 to conduct an impartial investigation does not survive any further and in any case, if any additional material is brought to the knowledge of the 3 Investigating Officer by the petitioner, the I.O. is not estopped from filing a supplementary charge-sheet with the leave of the court under Section 173(8) of Cr.P.C. 5. We direct the respondent no.5-Bank to pass an order in terms of its decision dated 9/12/2009 and placed before us and communicate the same to the petitioner within four weeks from today. 6. Save and except the above directions, petition stands disposed off. (R.Y.GANOO,J.) (B.H.MARLAPALLE,J.)
