During the inquiry, statements of Balvir Singh Fauji MC and Monu Singh Halwai (respondents No.6 and 7) were recorded, wherein they had stated that now the petitioner had sold his house in Lehra and started living in another city, since they stopped him from selling drugs in their Ward No.15. It has been further alleged that after conducting thorough inquiry and examination of relevant record, it is revealed that total nine cases of NDPS Act, Excise Act and theft are found to be registered against the petitioner. He is a person with criminal antecedents and is involved in drug business. Now, the petitioner had sold his house in Lehra and started living in another city. As Balbir Singh Fauji MC and Monu Halwai (respondents No.6 and 7) used to stop the petitioner from doing drug business. So, the false allegations have been levelled against them and no action is required to be taken on his application. Detail of 09 criminal cases registered against the petitioner has also been given in the status report out of which he has been convicted in one case under NDPS and remaining cases are pending trial. It has been submitted that no truth has been found in the allegations levelled by the petitioner against respondents No.6 and 7.
