In view of the fact that despite the order of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Patna, dated 14.09.2015, passed in Complaint Case No.3191(C) of 2015, instituted by the present petitioner, directing the First Information Report to be registered by the Officer-in-Charge, Kotwali Police Station, respondent No.11, no First Information Report had been
Patna High Court Cr. WJC No.251 of 2016 (2) dt.08-04-2016 2/2 registered by the police, the present writ petition was made, under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, seeking appropriate directions.
In the meanwhile, however, since the First Information Report, in terms of the directions issued by the order, dated 14.09.2015, aforementioned, has already been registered and the investigation is in progress, we do not find that the present writ petition calls for making any further direction at this stage.
In view of the above and in the interest of justice, this writ petition is closed with liberty granted to the petitioner to approach this Court with appropriate application, in future, if so advised and also take recourse to such provisions of law as may be permissible.
