It is the contention of the petitioner that he had entered into a contract with the accused, and the accused had induced the petitioner to pay certain amount, however, the accused has failed to re-convey the property. On a complaint given by the petitioner under Section 175(3) of BNSS, the Judicial Magistrate, Thittagudi, Cuddalore District, directed the respondent police to register the case, if a cognizable offence is made out, and to file a report in this regard. Since the respondent police did not register the FIR, the present petition has been filed. 3. The learned Government Advocate(crl.side), on instruction, would submit that the report has already been forwarded to the concerned Magistrate Court on 08.07.2025. It is further stated that the defacto complainant, having given complaint, has not cooperated with the investigation. 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRL OP No. 22253 of 2025 4.

With the above observations, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed.
