Sardar Singh Gaur S/O Shri Bhanwar Singh Rajput B/C Rajput Vs State of Rajasthan

Apex Court in “ Sakiri Vasu vs. State of U.P. & Ors. AIR 2008 SC Page 907” has held that the Judicial Magistrate has very wide powers to enquire about the investigation and for monitoring the investigation to ensure that the investigation is done properly. Apex Court has further observed that the High Court should discourage the practice of filing Writ Petitions or petitions under Section 482 Cr.P.C. simply because a person has a grievance that investigation has not been done properly by the Police. For this grievance, the remedy lies before the Magistrate concerned.

[CRLMP-2801/2019]

I do not find any force in the Criminal Misc. Petition. The Criminal Misc. Petition is accordingly disposed of.

However, petitioner would be free to approach the Magistrate concerned to enquire about the progress of the investigation.
