CRM-50110-2025 in/and -2CRM-M-55594-2025 Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 05.08.2025, whereby further investigation was ordered on the cancellation report solely on the basis of the statement of the complainant. It is contended that the order passed by the learned trial Court is not sustainable in the eyes of law, as no reasons have been assigned for rejecting the cancellation report.

Learned Senior counsel submits that he has no objection if a fresh speaking order is passed by the ld. trial Court on the cancellation report. I have heard the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties and have perused the record.

A perusal of the impugned order reveals that the only reason recorded for directing further investigation is dissatisfaction of the complainant with the investigation. However, the law requires that the Court must apply its judicial mind to reach its satisfaction whether the matter requires further investigation.

Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the case, the order dated 05.08.2025 is hereby set aside and the present petition is allowed. The matter is remanded back to the trial Court to pass a fresh, reasoned, and speaking order on the cancellation report so filed, in accordance with law.
