Mr. Moharana, learned counsel for the Petitioner submits that on accounts of civil dispute, the Opposite Party No.5, who is the sister-in-law (Jaa) of the Petitioner has been repeatedly lodging complaints in the Niali Police Station making false allegations. As a result, five cases have been registered in the Niali Police Station. The Inspector-in-Charge, Niali Police Station without making enquiry has registered the cases against the Petitioner and other family members for which they have to run to the Police station causing them unnecessary harassment and hardship. 3. It appears that the Petitioner has already written to the Superintendent of Police (Rural), Cuttack in this regard. Page 3 of 3 4. It is, therefore, expected that the Superintendent of Police, Cuttack (Rural) shall cause supervision of the cases by a competent officer, so that there is proper investigation in the cases. 5. With the aforesaid observation the CRLMP is disposed of. (Savitri Ratho) Judge RKS
