IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.950 of 2007 REKHA KUWAR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 9. 31.08.2009 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Counsel for the State. The petitioner is stated to have already filed Complaint Case No. 1283(C) of 2006 on 30.8.2006, presently pending before the SDJM Ara in respect of murder of her husband Ramji Singh and his brothers Laxman Singh and Bharat Singh. It is submitted that the complaint case is pending at the enquiry stage prior to cognizance and six of the seven prosecution witnesses have been examined. Learned Counsel is not aware of the developments that may have taken place thereafter in the complaint case. The prayer in this writ application is for handing over the investigation to either Central Bureau of Investigation or the CID of the State of Bihar. Once the petitioner has availed remedy of a complaint case the Court has adequate powers itself under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. with regard to any direction for Police investigation. It does not appear to be the case of the petitioner that she has preferred any application before the court below when the complaint case is proceeding on its own steam under the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure regulating a complaint case. Once the petitioner has herself opted to avail the remedy in law of a complaint case under the Code of Criminal Procedure and which is proceeding in accordance with law on the proceeding set in motion by the application of the petitioner herself there is no occasion for this Court to give any further direction at this stage of any other nature except to direct that the complaint case shall proceed in accordance with law expeditiously provided the petitioner herself cooperates. The writ application stands disposed. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
