Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that on a complaint filed by respondent No. 10 relating to some property dispute with the petitioners, who are the husband & wife, are unnecessarily being called by the police authority to the police station and made them to sit in police station for hours together. He further submits that the petitioners are being harassed by the the police authority at the instance of respondent No. 10 without there being any FIR against them. He further submits that the petitioners have also made a complaint raising their grievances with regard to the aforesaid inaction before the Superintendent of 4 Police, Raipur but no action is taken on the complaint. 4. On the other hand, learned State counsel opposes the argument made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and submits that on a complaint made by the respondent No. 10, the petitioners were called for investigation in the police station and thereafter the proceedings under Section 156 of the CrPC was initiated and thereafter the parties were directed to approach the Civil Court for redressal of their grievance. 5. We have heard learned counsel appearing for the parties, perused the pleadings and the documents appended thereto. 6. Considering the submission made by learned State counsel as the police has already initiated the proceedings under Section 156 Cr.PC and directed the parties to approach the Civil Court for redressal of their grievances as the matter appears to be a property dispute and also the fact that by letter dated 17.07.2025 the SHO, PS Vidhansabha, Raipur, informed the learned Sessions Court, Raipur that no crime has been registered against the petitioners and based on the said report the learned Sessions Court rejected the bail application of the petitioners under Section 482 of the BNSS, we do not find any good ground to entertain the petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. Sd/- Sd/- (Bibhu Datta Guru) (Ramesh Sinha) Judge Chief Justice Jyoti
