IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Cr.Misc. 2019 M of 2010 Date of decision:- 22.1.2010 Manpreet Singh petitioner vs State of Punjab and others Respondent Present: Mr. Shakun Chaudhary, Advocate. M.M.S.BEDI,J. The petitioner has filed this petition u/s 482 Cr.P.C. for a direction to respondents 1 to 3 to take appropriate legal action against respondents 4 to 6 by registration of an FIR as respondent No.4 had obtained admission in B.Ed. course in the session of 2003-04 on the basis of forged documents. The petitioner does not seem to have any locus standi to question the admission of respondent No.4 after a gap of 5-6 years. The direction to lodge an FIR, by exercising powers u/s 482 Cr.P.C. will not serve the ends of justice but would be rather an abuse of the process of court, as such, I do not find any ground to give any direction after a lapse of 5-6 years of the event, to lodge an FIR. The next prayer, made by the petitioner, in this petition is that a direction should be given to the official respondents to protect the life and liberty of the petitioner and his family members at the hands of respondents 4 to 6. The petitioner does not seem to have specified the date, day or time when his life and liberty was prejudiced. He has got a remedy u/s 154(1) Cr.P.C. to approach the concerned SHO in case a cognizable offence is committed by the private respondents. In case of refusal on the part of the Officer Incharge of the Police Station, the petitioner can move an application before the concerned SSP u/s 154(3) Cr.P.C. In view of the above, no direction can be given at this stage. Dismissed. January 22 ,2010 (M.M.S.BEDI) TSM JUDGE
