Dear reader,
The non-action on the part of the police does cause great difficulty and irritation, especially when a court order is not executed. A kurki warrant issued under Section 83 of the CrPC is one of the examples. According to law, such warrants are to be executed soon by the police officers. Failure to do so may amount to dereliction of duty. You have the following options. The first is to file a contempt of court against the superintendent of police for willful disregard of the directive of the court. Under the Contempt of Courts Act, of 1971, such disobedience is incriminatory and may force the police to act. The issuing court may be approached by an application pointing out inaction on the part of the police and passing explicit directions to the police to execute the warrant without delay. The court may intervene to enforce compliance by your officers with its orders. All your contacts with the police, including any efforts you have made to get the warrant enforced, should be preserved and documented. Copies of your communications may prove useful in your contempt application or petition before the court. I hope this guidance will assist you in navigating the court processes effectively. Should you require additional advice, please do not hesitate to reach out.
