The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that respondents 3 and 4 preferred a complaint and the respondent police have taken the same on file and registered an FIR. Insofar as the petitioner's complaint is concerned, the respondent police have closed the same. Hence, the present petition is filed. 3.Considering the above facts and circumstances of the case, the second respondent is directed to consider the petitioner's representation dated 26.11.2025 and take appropriate action in accordance with law.
