JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH ORAL JUDGMENT Date: 04-10-2017 The petitioner has filed the present application with a prayer to initiate the contempt proceeding against opposite parties for their willful disobedience and non-compliance of the order dated 15.10.2012 passed in Cr.WJC No. 525 of 2012.
2.
By order dated 15.10.2012, Cr.WJC No. 525 of 2012 filed by the petitioner was dismissed holding the same to be premature. However, it was observed "It is expected that the District Magistrate concerned would decide the case on merit expeditiously."
Patna High Court MJC No.297 of 2016 dt.04-10-2017 2/2 3.
A show-cause has been filed on behalf of opposite party no. 2. In paragraph 5 of the show-cause, it is categorically stated that the opposite party no. 2 has revoked the suspension of the arms licence of the petitioner by order dated 05.02.2016 and ordered to release the arms in favour of the petitioner. 4.
Firstly, I am of the view that no contempt is made out in the present case as there was no mandamus issued to opposite parties. Secondly, as the observation made by this Court in its concluding part has fully been complied with, there is no question to initiate any proceeding against opposite parties. 5.
The application, being meritless, is dismissed. (Ashwani Kumar Singh, J.) Kanchan/- AFR/NAFR NAFR CAV DATE NA Uploading Date 06.10.2017 Transmission Date NA
