CRM-M-5967-2020 (O&M) -2Perusal of the record would show that despite availing the number of opportunities, the petitioner has not bothered to join the investigation and to comply the orders passed by this Court. Keeping in view the above, the petitioner cannot be allowed to avail the interim protection at the costs of violations of the conditions laid therein. Therefore, the petitioner is no longer entitled to the interim protection.

Accordingly, the present petition stands dismissed. 10.12.2021 (HARNARESH SINGH GILL) Aman Jain JUDGE Whether reasoned/speaking?
