For the State : Mr. Gaurav Raj, AC to AAG …..... 07/24.07.2025: In this petition, the petitioners have prayed for direction upon the respondents to take action in connection with Muffasil P.S. Case No. 205 of 2024, registered under Section(s) 302, 201, 120B of the Indian Penal Code, against the named accused persons, which is pending in the Court of learned SDJM, Giridih. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that suffice it would be to direct the respondent State to conclude the investigation of Giridih Muffasil P.S. Case No. 205 of 2024 without any delay, as the matter is pending since 2024 and till date final report has not been filed. After hearing the parties and the limited nature of prayer made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and considering the fact that the investigation is pending since 2024, I direct the Superintendent of Police as well as the Officer-in- Charge concerned to ensure that the investigation of Muffasil (Giridih) P.S. Case No. 205 of 2024 is concluded as early as possible, preferably within a period of three months and submit the necessary report before the concerned Court. After submission of the report, If the petitioners are aggrieved by the same, liberty is given to the petitioners to take proper recourse of law before the Court concerned. Accordingly, this petition stands disposed of. Anu/-Cp3. (ANANDA SEN, J.)
