JUDGMENT :
1. The writ petition is filed, aggrieved by the failure to register FIR and conduct investigation into the allegations raised in Exts.P1 and P2 complaints. The petitioner is working as Vehicle Supervisor at the Vizhinjam Depot of the KSRTC. The incumbent Managing Director of the KSRTC unearthed a scam involving a highly placed official of the Corporation. It was reported that in the internal audit of the Corporations' accounts for the period 2012-2015, grave financial irregularities and misappropriation by the then Accounts Manager, K.M.Sreekumar had been unearthed. Taking cue from that revelation, the petitioner, who claims to have been agitating the issue of corruption on his own, lodged Exts.P1 and P2 complaints alleging that, along with Sri.K.M.Sreekumar, the then Executive Director (Vigilance) Sri. Sharad Mohammed and certain other officials were also involved in the misappropriation of public money. The Police having refused to register crime based on the complaints, the petitioner prays for a direction to the respondents to consider and dispose of Exts.P1 and P2 by conducting proper investigation.
