2. Heard Ms. K.Kishanmayee, learned counsel representing Mr. P.Nagendra Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. D.Pradeep, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for respondent Nos.1 to 3.
3. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the respondent police authorities failed to register a crime pursuant to the representation dated 27.09.2018 made by the petitioner, and therefore seeks appropriate directions from this Court.
4. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home, in reply, submits that the said representation was registered as Crime No. 641 of 2018, and after due investigation, a charge sheet was filed in C.C. No. 578 of 2020 on the file of the learned XI Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Kukatpally. The matter is presently pending before the Trial Court. Hence, it is contended that the grievance raised by the petitioner no longer survives for consideration.
5. I have perused the material available on record.
6. Having regard to the developments reported by the learned Assistant Government Pleader, it is evident that the grievance of the petitioner has already been effectively redressed by the respondent police authorities. Therefore, nothing further remains for adjudication in this matter.
7. Accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. There shall be no order as to costs.
Miscellaneous Petitions, pending if any, shall stand closed.
