ORDER
This Criminal Original Petition has been filed for a direction, to transfer the investigation in Crime No.1/2013 on the file of the CBCID, Cuddalore District, to CBI for further fresh and fair investigation.
2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Advocate (crl.side) appearing for the respondents.
3. From the affidavit filed by the petitioner, it appears that one Mr.Shanmugam was murdered on 17.05.2011 and investigation of the case has been transferred to CBCID, pursuant to the order passed by this Court in Crl.OP.No.2280/2013 dated 10.07.2013.
4. Now, the grievance of the petitioner is that the CBCID, inspite of specific direction issued by this Court, has joined hands with the sons of the deceased who are really the suspects in the case and discretely screamed huge jewels which were pledged by the public with the deceased Mr.Shanmugam.
5. The petitioner has not stated, in what way, he is interested in the case and there is no indication that he is one of the person pledged the jewel with Mr.Shanmugam or any other proximity with the deceased Mr.Shanmugam, or his sons in any event.
6. Considering the facts brought to the notice of this Court that the investigation by CBCID, in this case, is not yet completed, it is suffice to direct the CBCID to complete the investigation and file final report, if not already filed, as expeditiously as possible. Except the said direction, no other direction is required in this petition.
7. Hence, with the above direction, the Criminal Original Petition stands dismissed.
