room. It is stated that since the police failed to take action despite
complaints, this Court may direct registration of FIR.
On the complaint, ATR was called as per which upon a
preliminary inquiry conducted by the investigating officer, it has been
revealed that incident dated 15.06.2021 took place at her matrimonial home
situated in Gurugram, Haryana. It is also revealed that the incident dated
15.06.2021 was never reported before the concerned Police Station but
reported at PS Ambedkar Nagar after lapse of one month i.e. on 16.07.2021
when the complainant visited her parental house.
I have also perused the statement of the complainant given to
the IO during inquiry.
From the ATR it is clear that the incident has taken place at
Gurguram, Haryana which is beyond the jurisdiction of this Court. Hence,
the present complaint and application is directed to be returned to the
complainant to be filed before appropriate forum having territorial
jurisdiction over the matter.
The application is accordingly disposed off for lack of
jurisdiction.
File be consigned to Record Room, after due compliances.
