2. The petitioner who is the founder member of fly ash bricks and blocks manufacturer association had lodged a complaint to the second respondent police to take action against Arulraj, Sasidhar Ravi, Sivakumar, Tamilselvan who had misused the petitioner's association name and further claiming that they are going to call Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, MLA and other dignitaries for new year celebrations. Further they have also arranged for a meeting in MS Mahal at Paravai. They also used the association name and collected huge sum of money, hence the petitioner has lodged a complaint. The respondent police assigned CSR No.932 of 2024 and after enquiry closed it on the same day, w hich is not proper.

3. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor fairly submitted that in this case CSR No. 932 of 2024 assigned to the petitioner's complaint and thereafter on the same day it was closed recording that counter complainant had taken time to furnish document, hence the complaint was closed.
4. It is seen that the complaint was given on 26.12.2024 and the same was closed on 26.12.2024, hence the contention of the learned Additional Public Prosecutor is not acceptable.
5. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner on instructions submitted that the petitioner will appear before the respondent police for enquiry on 30.01.2025 along with supporting materials. He further apprehends that the same Inspector of Police may not be the proper officer to conduct enquiry since he had earlier closed the petition.
