Janakiraman v. the Inspector of Police
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court dismissed a Criminal Original Petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking relief from harassment. The court refused to issue directions, holding that once an FIR was registered and investigation pending, any such direction would interfere with police proceedings.
What did the court decide?
The petition was dismissed as the existence of a registered FIR and pending investigation precludes an order not to harass.
