Judgment
Petitioner has preferred this misc. petition seeking fair investigation.
Learned Public Prosecutor has submitted the report, which is taken on record.
As per the report, after filing of the FIR one of the injured has expired and Section 302 of IPC was added. As per the factual report submitted by
Police on 20.12.2019, the matter is under investigation.
It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that as per the latest factual report, which is filed on 05.02.2020, Police has come to the
conclusion that offence under Sections 341, 323, 308 and 427 IPC is found to be made out against Praveen Kumar Choudhary. It is also contended
that the matter is still at the stage of 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.
In view of the judgment of Apex Court, I am not inclined to entertain the misc. petition, the same is accordingly disposed of.
However, petitioner would be free to approach the concerned Magistrate to inquire about the progress of the investigation.
