O R D E R
The grievances of the petitioner in the present writ petition is that there isn't any progress in the investigation and therefore, he sought for transfer of investigation from the first respondent to the CBCID.
2.In my view, such a ground may not be sufficient to transfer the investigation.
Nevertheless, if the first respondent herein is directed to complete the investigation and file a final report within the stipulated time, and if such an investigation shall be monitored by the Superior Officer, then the ends of justice would be secured.
