2. When the matter is called, written instructions dated 13/8/2015 furnished by the Sub-Inspector of Police, Pahadisharif Police Station, Cyberabad Commissionerate have been placed by the learned Government Pleader for Home [TG].

3. The written instruction, read as under:

"on receipt of the communication about the filing of the writ petition by the petitioner, this respondent has thoroughly verified the records of this respondent police station including Station General Diary as to whether any complaint dated 29/7/2015 has been received. No complaint has been received either from the petitioner or through proper channel to this respondent police station for

taking any action on it.

It may be true that the petitioner sent the petition dated 29/7/2015 to the Commissioner of Police, Cyberabad, but as of now, no endorsement was received to this respondent Police Station through proper channel and hence no action was taken till date.

It is always open for the petitioner to approach this respondent police station to lodge any fresh complaint or the complaint dated 29/7/2015 certainly, this respondent will take action after conducting enquiry into the matter.

I assure to this Hon'ble court in the meanwhile, if any, endorsement is received from the Office of the Commissioner of Police, certainly, this respondent will take action on the complaint dated 29/7/2015 of the petitioner and the action taken will be communicated to the petitioner.

This respondent shall abide by the directions , if any, passed by this Hon'ble court."
