O R D E R

This petition is filed to direct the respondent to complete the investigation in FIR No.195 of 2016 and to submit final report, within the period as stipulated by this court. 2.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that petitioner filed a direction petition in Crl.O.P(MD) No.10382 of 2016 to register a complaint and it was ordered on 30.06.2016 directing the respondent to take necessary action and as per the direction of this court, FIR has been registered in Crime No.195 of 2016 under Section 379 IPC on 04.09.2016 against one Govindaraj and 11 others, but the respondent has not filed a final report as ordered by this court. Hence, this petition is filed to issue a suitable direction to the Investigating Officer. 3.The learned Government Advocate (Criminal side) would submit that in this case, the respondent police has filed a final report along with relevant documents before the Judicial Magistrate, Thiruvadanai and hence, the petition filed by the petitioner is not at all maintainable in law. Hence, he prayed for the dismissal of the petition.
