3. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor, Mr.E.Antony Sahaya Prabahar, submitted that the petitioner earlier approached this Court in W.P.Crl(MD) No.1902 of 2025. When the said matter was taken up for hearing, the respondent police had filed closure report and hence, this Court directed the petitioner to seek appropriate remedy in the manner known to law. However, without approaching the Trial Court for appropriate remedy, the petitioner has filed this Writ Petition afresh.

4. Considering the order passed by this Court in W.P.Crl(MD) No.1902 of 2025, dated 29.10.2025, I do not find any merits in this Writ Petition. Hence, the petitioner is directed to work out his remedy before the appropriate court.
