2. When the case came up for hearing on 16.04.2026, the learned Government Advocate, on instructions from the respondent police, submitted that final report would be filed within the period of two weeks. Recording the said submission, the petition was disposed of. Though the order was passed on 16.04.2026, the final report was not filed. Hence the petitioner had taken contempt notice to the respondent on 08.07.2026, which was received by the respondent on 10.07.2026. Despite receiving the notice, the respondent not taken any action, hence the above contempt petition is filed.
