3. This Court is of the opinion that in view of the observations made and directions given by the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Sakiri Vasu Vs. State of U.P., AIR 2008 SC 907, the Judicial Magistrate has very wide powers to enquire about the investigation and for monitoring the investigation to ensure that the investigation is done properly. Apex Court has further observed that the High Court should discourage the practice of filing writ petitions or petitions under Section 528 B.N.S.S simply because a person has a grievance that investigation has not been done properly by the Police. For this grievance, the remedy lies before the concerned Magistrate.
4. In view of the Judgment of the Apex Court, I do not find any force in the criminal misc. petition and the same is accordingly
disposed of. Stay application stands disposed of.
5. However, petitioner would be free to approach the concerned Magistrate to inquire about the progress of the investigation.
