HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR W.P.No.11108 of 2011 O R D E R: This writ petition is thoroughly misconceived. 2. The petitioner, who is one of the creditors of respondents 4 and 5, is attempting to use the process of this Court for initiating criminal proceedings against the respondents 4 and 5 by stating that the 1st and 2nd respondent-Punjab National Bank is also a creditor to respondents 4 and 5 and that the said Bank is not taking appropriate criminal action against the respondents 4 and 5. A mandamus is sought against Bank to take criminal action against R-4 and R-5. Several disputed factual allegations are made with regard to genuineness of the document on the basis of which loans are alleged to have been obtained by the respondents 4 and 5 from respondent-Bank. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing counsel for the respondent-Bank. 4. I am unable to see any locus of the petitioner to sustain this writ petition as it amounts to one creditor trying to pressurize the debtor through another creditor by using the process of this Court, which cannot be permitted. It is averred that the petitioner has already initiated his own proceedings for alleged offence against respondents 4 and 5. While the petitioner is free to initiate appropriate proceedings for enforcing his security, the petitioner has no locus whatsoever to force the 1st respondent-bank to initiate criminal proceedings against the respondents 4 and 5. 5. It is also brought to my notice that similar writ petition No.3104 of 2011 was filed by the petitioner earlier and the same was dismissed as withdrawn by order of this Court dated 14-02-2011. Surprisingly, present writ petition is filed on 19-04-2011 also seeking similar relief without disclosing dismissal of earlier writ petition. The petitioner, therefore, deserves to be mulcted with costs. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed with costs quantified at Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only). ________________ 01-11-2011 kvr
