----------------------------- W.P(C) No.32059 of 2014 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 15th day of January, 2015.

J U D G M E N T What the writ petitioner practically wants is investigation on a complaint made by him. His grievance is that the police has not so far taken any action on his complaint. Now there is a report by the Sub Inspector of Police, Kurathikkad that the police has registered a crime on his complaint under the Information Technology Act, and that investigation is in progress. The learned counsel now submits that this report can be recorded, and the writ petition can be closed. However, the Investigating Officer is directed to proceed for effective investigation on the complaint. The report submitted by the Sub Inspector on 17.12.2014 is accordingly recorded, and the writ petition is closed.
