THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION No.6548 of 2016 ORDER:

The grievance of the petitioner in this case was as to the inaction on the part of the police authorities upon his complaint dated 16.01.2016.

As no evidence was filed in proof of the receipt of the said complaint by the police authorities, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home was asked to get instructions. Today, written instructions dated 14.03.2016 furnished by the Sub-Inspector of Police, Jammikunta Police Station, Karimnagar District to the office of the learned Government Pleader for Home are produced, wherein it is stated that no complaint had been received from the petitioner.

In the light of this categorical denial, Sri Ch. Ravinder, learned counsel for the petitioner, fairly stated that the petitioner would make a fresh complaint.

The writ petition is accordingly closed leaving it open to the petitioner to make a fresh complaint, if warranted. Needless to state, in the event such a complaint is made, the police authorities are bound to take action thereon in the light of the law laid down by the Supreme Court in Lalita Kumari v. Government of Uttar Pradesh[1]. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall also stand closed. No order as to costs.
