2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State.

3. In the instant application preferred under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner has prayed for issuance of a direction to the respondent nos. 6 to 8 to take further

Patna High Court CR. WJC No.1122 of 2019 dt.29-07-2019 2/2 action in terms of the order dated 27.05.2019 passed by the Sub Divisional Magistrate, Barh in a matter arising out of a proceeding under Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. The petitioner has further prayed with a direction be issued to the respondent nos. 9, 10 and 11 to stop construction on the land detailed in para 9 of the petition.

4. The application is thoroughly misconceived. Firstly, the supervisory jurisdiction of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India can not be misused for the purpose of seeking execution of an order passed by a Sub Divisional Magistrate. Secondly, several disputed questions of fact have been raised in the application, which can not be decided in a writ petition and thirdly, as far as the prayer of the petitioner for directing the respondents no. 9, 10 and 11 to stop further construction over the land detailed in para 9 is concerned, the petitioner has an equally efficacious statutory remedy available under common civil law.

5. In that view of the matter, the application is dismissed. (Ashwani Kumar Singh, J.) Sanjeet/- AFR/NAFR NAFR CAV DATE NA Uploading Date 01.08.2019 Transmission Date NA
