(2.) The records discloses that, the respondent Nos.2 and 3 have filed a private complaint in PCR No.35799/2010 on the file of the VIII Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate at Bengaluru, who has referred the said complaint for investigation and report under section 156(3) of Cr.P.C,, 1973 and thereafter on the basis of the reference of the complaint, the police have registered a Crime in No.500/2010 dated 27.10.2010.
