OFFICER-IN-CHARGE, G.R.P. KISHANGANJ, BIHAR 6. INSPECTOR OF R.P.F., KISHANGANJ, BIHAR……………………………………………………………..RESPONDENTS ----------- For the Petitioner: M/s Ashok Kumar Sharma & Rahul Nath, Advocates For Respondent no.1: Mr. Anil Singh, Advocate 5. 09.02.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the respondents. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that for the theft of attaché of the petitioner, her husband had made a complaint to the Inspector, Government Railway Police, Kishanganj. However, no case was instituted. Later on, husband of the petitioner was taken by the G.R.P. to Jalpaigudi for identification of the goods recovered and thereafter he was implicated in a case of recovery of attaché with Ganja. Petitioner prays, in this writ - 2 - application, for a direction to the Inspector of G.R.P., Kishganganj to institute a case on the statement of her husband allegedly made by him in respect of theft of his attaché. Learned counsel for the State and learned counsel for the Railway submits that since the alleged complaint made by the petitioner’s husband to the Inspector of G.R.P., Kishanganj is not available on record, the statement of petitioner’s husband cannot be verified. The Inspector, G.R.P. Kishangani, respondent no.5, is directed to institute a case if only the statement of the petitioner’s husband in respect of theft of attaché has been recorded by him and proceed with the investigation. With the aforesaid observation and direction, the writ application is disposed of. B.T (J. N. Singh, J.)
