ORDER

' In the instant writ petition the complainant/informant of F.I.R. No.102 of 2003 which he got registered under section 302, P.P.C. With the Pacca Laran Police Station, Tehsil Liaqatpur for the murder of his real brother, wants to get the order dated 8-9-2003 passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Rahimyar Khan to be quashed.

2. The facts in brief are that Mureed Hussain, complainant filed an application under section 22-A of the Cr.P.C. In the Court of learned Sessions Judge, Rahimyar Khan, for issuance of a direction to D.S.P. Headquarter, Rahimyar Khan for medical examination of Muhammad Arshad, accused who was . Detained in the judicial lock-up, Rahimyar Khan in the aforesaid case. According to the complainant/ petitioner the examination of Muhammad Arshad, accused was essential so as to determine the health of Muhammad Arshad, who allegedly was an incapacitated person having suffered the disease of paralysis. The request was made with the intent to show the accused a paralyzed person and to prove that therefore, it was not believable and reasonable for Muhammad Arshad to cause murder alone of the deceased without the help of other persons. This request was turned down by the learned Additional Sessions Judge on 8-9-2003 with the direction that the Investigating Officer D.S.P. Headquarter would investigate the case in the light of latest statements of complainant and eye-witnesses of the case. The same prayer is being repeated here.

3. I have considered the prayer of the petitioner, which seems to be a premature and misconceived request on the part of the petitioner. The report of occurrence is being investigated by the Investigating Officer, seized of the case. The guilt or innocence, the collection of evidence, the recording of the statements and the recovery of the weapon of offence and all other matters relating to the investigation of a case are within the powers and authority of the police, which shall not be interfered except in exceptional circumstances. There are no special circumstances to direct the Investigating Officer to take a specified or prescribed course of investigation, as it would hamper the direction and correct investigation of the case.-the Investigating Officer being adopted at tis stage. The police should be gikei.i a free hand to investigate completely the case with its own wisdom. Interference at this stage is not proper, therefore, the impugned order passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Rahimyar Khan on 8-9-2003 calls for no interference from this Court in the extraordinary jurisdiction of this writ petition. Therefore, I dismiss this writ petition with no order as to costs.
