From perusal of the record, it is revealed that statement of prosecutrix has been recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C. Proper course available to the

petitioner is to approach the concerned Magistrate and inquire about the progress of the investigation.

Apex Court in ""Sakiri Vasu vs. State of U.P. & Ors. AIR 2008 SC Page 907 ""has held that the Judicial Magistrate has very wide powers to

enquire about the investigation and for monitoring the investigation to ensure that the investigation is done properly. Apex Court has further observed

that the High Court should discourage the practice of filing Writ Petitions or petitions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. simply because a person has a

grievance that investigation has not been done properly by the Police. For this grievance, the remedy lies before the Magistrate concerned.
