CRM No. M-18665 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CRM No. M-18665 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 14.7.2009 Ranjit Singh alias Natha ...Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. Sanjiv Gupta, Advocate, for the petitioner. Rajan Gupta, J. In this petition, the petitioner has prayed that investigation of FIR No.192 dated 2nd June, 2009, registered under Sections 323, 324 read with Section 34 IPC at Police Station Taraori, District Karnal be handed over to some independent agency as also to investigate the role of the Medical Officer, who allegedly prepared a false medico-legal report. The dispute is regarding two acres of land. According to the FIR, the civil court had decided in favour of the complainant. However, on the date of occurrence, the complainant was attacked by the petitioner and his co-accused. The petitioner has submitted in the present petition that this case is of false implication. The complainant in collusion with Medical Officer and police officials had concocted the whole story. The record has been accordingly prepared. This has been done only with a view to implicate the petitioner. CRM No. M-18665 of 2009 2 Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that in view of the fact that the petitioner has been falsely implicated, the investigation of the case be handed over to some independent agency and the role of the Medical Officer, who allegedly prepared the false medico-legal report, be investigated. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and given careful thought to the facts of the case. The offences involved are under Sections 323, 324 read with Section 34 IPC. A prayer to hand over the investigation of such a case by an independent agency, in my considered view, is totally misconceived. The FIR was lodged only on 2nd June, 2009. The present petition has been preferred barely within 1½ months thereafter. Even the nature of crime allegedly committed, does not make out any case for handing over the case to an independent agency or to order an investigation into the role of the Medical Officer who prepared the medico-legal report. In fact, the prayer made in the petition is totally frivolous and normally would call for imposition of heavy cost. However, keeping in view the fact that the dispute is over a small piece of land, this court is refraining from imposing costs upon the petitioner. The petition is hereby dismissed.
