In my considered view, the Writ Petition is not an appropriate remedy for redressal of the petitioner’s grievances. If respondent No.1 has committed any offence towards the petitioner, she is entitled to approach the Police with a complaint and if no action is taken thereon, she is entitled to approach the jurisdictional Magistrate with a private complaint under Section 190 read with Section 200 Cr.P.C., as held by the Supreme Court in Aleque Padamsee and Others vs. Union of India and Others[1]. In so far as the second limb of the prayer of the petitioner is concerned, if the charge sheet contains false charges against the petitioner, the appropriate remedy for her is to file a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C., seeking quashing of the charge sheet. Subject to the above observations, the Writ Petition is dismissed. As a sequel to dismissal of the Writ Petition, WPMP.No.15155 of 2009 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ___________________________ (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) 17th June, 2009 LUR [1] AIR 2007 SC (Supp) 684
