This petition has been filed to direct the 1st respondent to not to harass the petitioner.

2.The grievance of the petitioner is that there is a civil dispute between the parties and the respondent police is issuing summons under Sections 160 and 91 of Cr.P.C. for appearance of the petitioner even without registering an FIR and therefore, the summon itself is not sustainable.

3.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that the respondent police will take a decision with regard to registration of FIR within a short time, if the complaint makes out a cognizable offence and thereafter, will proceed in accordance with law.
