Polling in in Godda constituency is scheduled for April 24.

During the hearing today, police filed their compliance report and a copy of the FIR before the court and it was taken on record.

The court has fixed the matter for further hearing on May 17 and has directed the investigating officer to appear in person before it to apprise it about the status of the ongoing probe.

The FIR was registered on an order passed by the court directing the SHO of Tuglak Road Police Station to 'register an FIR and investigate the matter, as per law'.

The court, while directing the police to lodged an FIR, had said 'police will investigate the matter to ascertain whether there is actual commission of any offence or not and will arrest the accused only if the circumstances so warrant'.

Sharma, in his plea, had said that Nishikant and his wife had also caused injuries to him 'by slaps and blows'.

He had sought registration of an FIR against the two under various sections of IPC, including voluntarily causing hurt, extortion by putting a person in fear of death, criminal breach of trust, cheating, house-trespass and criminal conspiracy besides others.

In case a complainant feels aggrieved when the police turn him away without registering FIR against those who subjected him to a cognizable offence, he has the right to approach a magisterial court under Section 156(3) of CrPC, to get an order for registration of FIR and investigation by the police.
