According to the counsel, a civil suit in this respect is already pending.

they harvested the crop in the field of complainant.
Learned counsel for the State (on instructions from Head
Constable Mangal Singh, who is present in court) submits that pursuant to
order dated 25.09.2009, the petitioners have joined the investigation and are
