IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No. M-38450 of 2011 Date of Decision : 20th December, 2011 Gurtej Singh .... Petitioner Versus The State of Punjab & others .... Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL * * * Present : None * * * L. N. MITTAL, J. (Oral) : Gurtej Singh has filed this petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (in short, Cr. P.C.) for directing the police authorities to take action on petitioner's complainant Annexure P-1. None is appearing for the petitioner. I have perused the case file. The petitioner virtually seeks direction from this Court to the police authorities to register FIR on the basis of petitioner's complaint. However, no such direction is required to be issued by this Court in exercise of inherent powers under Section 482 Cr.P.C. as held by Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Sakiri Vasu versus State of U.P., (2008) 2 SCC 409 because the petitioner has efficacious remedy of approaching the Ilaqa Magistrate for appropriate relief in accordance with law. In view of the aforesaid, but without meaning to express any opinion on merits of the case, the instant petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to approach the Ilaqa Magistrate for appropriate relief in accordance with law. 20th December, 2011 ( L. N. MITTAL ) 'raj' JUDGE
