6. One of the petitioner's grievance is that only one of the police officials against whom complaint had been made,has been mentioned in the FIR in question. This grievance is unmerited. The petitioner had filed an application under Section 156 (3) of the Cr.P.C. before the learned Metropolitan Magistrate praying that a FIR be registered. This application was allowed and it was directed that the FIR be registered in tenns ofthe complaint dated,15.11.2014.

8. The death of the petitioner's son is being investigated. This also includes ascertaining as to whether the petitioner played any partresulting in the death of his son. Therefore, such a direction restraining the police officials fi-orn visiting the petitioner's home,cannot be issued.The petitioner is directed to join the investigation and fiilly cooperate with the concerned officials. Plainly, if he does so., there would be no occasion for the police officials to visit his residence.
