Heard and perused the material available on record. It is alleged that the petitioner has taken away the daughter of the de facto complainant, who is a minor, on his bike, when the de facto complainant and his were not there in their house. The truth or otherwise of the above said allegations can be ascertained during the enquiry. Therefore, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the investigation against the petitioner.

In view of the above submission, the police concerned are directed to complete the investigation and file a final report, if any, without arresting the petitioner. In the event of necessity, the police concerned are directed to issue notice to the petitioner for his appearance before the investigating agency for the purpose of investigation. On issuance of such notice, the petitioner shall appear before the investigating agency and give an undertaking as to his future appearance as and when required by the investigating agency for the purpose of investigation.

With the above directions, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed.
