In course of hearing, Mr. Tripathy, learned counsel for the Petitioner, y submitted that the Petitioner is a victim of cheating, as certain persons allegedly took money from him on the assurance of providing services.

However, it is fairly conceded that the Petitioner has not made any representation in that regard before the Superintendent of Police, Kandhamal. Learned counsel for the Petitioner, therefore, prays for liberty to represent the matter before the Superintendent of Police, Kandhamal complaining of the inaction of the IIC concerned. p. 2
