The Allahabad High Court has asked a petitioner to file his complaint with the SP Jaunpur for fair investigation in accordance with the law in a case of theft of cash and jewellery worth lakhs and directed the SP to examine the matter and issue necessary directions to ensure a fair investigation is conducted expeditiously.
