ORDER

The learned Counsel for the Petitioner submits that he had purchased TATA sumo vehicle for the purpose of hiring, by availing loan from a finance company. He would further submit that despite 90 % of loan amount had been repaid by the Petitioner, the Finance Company without considering the same, through its Manager, has taken the vehicle without the knowledge of the Petitioner. Therefore, the Petitioner has lodged a complaint before the second respondent for taking necessary action. Since the same had not been registered till date, he has approached this Court by way of this Writ Petition.

2.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposed the claim of the Petitioner stating that the Petitioner has to pay the interest for the loan amount that was availed by him. Therefore, he vehemently raised his objection to entertain this Writ Petition and to register a case against the lender of the loan. The Petitioner had approached this Court with suppression of facts. Considering the vehement objection of the learned Additional Public Prosecutor, this Court is not inclined to entertain this writ petition.
