Habeeb Thambi Maraikayar, v. The Inspector of General,

ORDER Heard the learned counsel on either side.

¶2The petitioner submits that Document No.2435 of 2015 had been fraudulently registered by the third respondent. In this regard, complaint was given and the petitioner wants enquiry to be conducted in the light of the Circular No.67 dated 03.11.2011 (C. No.52338/C1/2011).

¶3I am not persuaded to concede the petitioner's request. The petition mentioned circular has since been withdrawn. If the petitioner has any legal rights, he has to enforce the same before the jurisdictional civil Court. If according to the petitioner he has been cheated, then he has to set the criminal law in motion. When the document has already been registered, the registering authority may no longer have any role in the matter.

¶4Granting liberty to the petitioner to move the jurisdictional civil and criminal Court, this writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
