Having regard to the fact that though the petitioner has made allegations of his being kidnapped for ransom, the petition is completely vague and does not, therefore, warrant invocation of extraordinary jurisdiction of the High Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.

If a First Information Report is lodged or the complaint is filed, the same shall be dealt with expeditiously and in accordance with law.
