Mr. Shehbaz Sahotra advocate for the petitioner

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

 

            In this Constitution Petition, the main grievance of the petitioner is against the excess committed by police officials/respondents. Being relevant Section 22-A(6) of Cr.P.C, is reproduced as under:

 

22-A(6) An ex officio Justice of Peace may issue appropriate directions to the police authorities concerned on a complaint regarding:

(i)         non-registration of criminal case;

(ii)             transfer of investigation from one police officer to another;

(iii)           neglect, failure or excess committed by a police authority in relation to its functions and duties.

 

                  Alternate remedy is already available to the petitioner to approach concerned Sessions Judge/Ex-Officio Justice of Peace as provided under section 22-A(6) Cr.P.C.

                  In the view of above, counsel for the petitioner does not press the petitioner anymore and submits that he would approach concerned Sessions Judge/Ex-Officio Justice of Peace. The petition is dismissed as not pressed.
