**** JASJIT SINGH BEDI, J. (Oral) The prayer in the present petition under Section 528 BNSS is for issuance of directions to respondent Nos.1 to 3 to ensure that the petitioners be not harassed by the police officials of Police Station Shahkot, District Jalandhar (Rural).
2. The counsel for the petitioners contends that the present is the second round of litigation. In the first round of litigation, the Investigating Agency had informed this Court that the petitioners were not required for any inquiry/investigation. Now, once again, the petitioners are being harassed by the Investigating Agency. Therefore, appropriate orders be passed directing the respondents not to harass the petitioners.
3. The counsel for the State, on the other hand, contends that at the initial stage, the petitioners were not found to be involved in any case. Now, during the course of the investigation in FIR No.164 dated 17.07.2025 under VISHAL SETHI 2026.07.28 16:43 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
