--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hon'ble Shri Justice Goutam Bhaduri Order On Board 07.08.2018 Heard 1.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has invested money of Rs.25,000/- in Real Gold Chit Fund Company on 30.11.2016 and he was assured that the money would be doubled after two years and thereafter on 30.11.2017 when he went to the office of the Real Gold Chit Fund Company, the money could not pay and subsequently it was revealed that the Company has been closed. It is stated that though the FIR was made, however, still the FIR is yet to be registered. 2.
Perused the report Annexure P-1, which appears to have been received by the police on 16.07.2018. Considering the nature of allegations, it appears that prima facie cognizable offence has been reported. Therefore, in view of the law laid down by the Supreme Court in case of Lalita Kumari v. Government of Uttar Pradesh and Others (2014) 2 SCC 1, since the cognizable offence has been reported, the concerned Police is directed to register the FIR and complete the investigation at the earliest. It is further made clear that the police shall be free to investigate the offence against the actual real culprits involved in the crime irrespective of the fact that number of persons have been named by the petitioner. It is also made clear that this Court has not made
any observation on merit about the involvement of any respondent in this case.
3.
With such observation, the petition stands disposed off. Ashok Sd/- (Goutam Bhaduri) Judge
