Narahari Counsel for the Respondents 5 & 6 : None appeared. The Court at the stage of admission made the following : ORAL ORDER: Heard both sides. Perused the material placed before me. The grievance of the petitioner is that in spite of his lodging complaints with the second respondent on 27-12-2004 and 2-4-2005, alleging that the respondents 5 and 6 had resorted to the offences of forgery etc., no action has been taken so far. Hence the present writ petition. It is needless to say that if any complaint is lodged, irrespective of its genuineness, the police are under obligation to investigate into the matter and proceed in accordance with law. Hence, suffice it to close the writ petition with a direction to the official respondents to initiate appropriate action on the complaint, if any, being lodged by the petitioner, as expeditiously as possible and proceed in accordance with law. With the above observations and directions, the writ petition is disposed of at the stage of admission. No costs. ---------------------- kvsn 07-04-2005 To 1 The Commissioner of Police, Urban, Vijayawada City, Krishna District. 2 The Station House Officer, Patamata Police Station, Vijayawada, Krishna District. 3 The Registrar of Companies, Kendryan Sadan, Koti, Hyderabad. 4 The Registrar of Chits, Kalanagar, Near Benz Circle, Vijayawada, Krishna District.
