2. The present writ petition has been filed seeking following relief(s):-

"I. Issue an appropriate writ of Mandamus, or any other appropriate writ, order or direction, commanding the Respondents to conduct further/Additional investigation in Ramkrishna Nagar P.S. Case No. 552/2023, particularly with respect to the threats made to the Petitioner on her mobile phone by Abhishek Kumar on 04/09/2023 at 9.55 p.m., as recorded in the charge sheet, in relation to her deceased son Ashutosh Kumar; for the role of Abhishek Kumar in the incident, has not been adequately investigated; and the Respondent's failure to incorporate the Petitioner as a Prosecution Witness or to produce her Call Detail Records (CDRs), despite specific mention of the same in the charge sheet;

II. And for the issuance of a writ of Mandamus, or any other appropriate writ, directing for a proper and fair investigation into the role of Komal and Shikha Kumari in the incident, inasmuch as the charge sheet itself records that the mobile location of komal bearing number 8292359787 was found within a distance of 300 metres from the place of occurrence at the relevant time and numerous calls were made by Abhishek Kumar to Shika Kumari on her mobile number 7488919934 emanating from the location of the occurrence. Call Detail Records (CDRs) of komal and Shikha Kumari, have not been produced thereby rendering the investigation incomplete and necessitating appropriate directions from this Hon'ble Court;

The grievance of the petitioner is that one Abhishek Kumr and two ladies Komal and Shikha Kumari have not been made accused or police did not properly investigate the matter. However, these persons have not been made respondents in the present case.
