Dear Sir
Please clarify which Judge is presiding over these proceedings and obtain a judgement that can be appealed.
Yours sincerely

Dear Sir
1. Kent Police initiated legal proceedings against me, although they have not informed me as to which Court or before which Judge this matter is to be considered. I have opted for the matter to be considered at Medway County Court and have responded to that action with this counter claim against Kent Police. There is therefore no longer any requirement on me to submit a Claim Form and Court Fee (Fee Remission) to accompany this defence submission as the matter can go straight to the Judge concerned for his consideration now.
2. Please arrange this Hearing as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely
Dr Shantanu Panigrahi

Dear Sir/Madam
1. Please issue proceedings against Kent Police as detailed in the following email in order that a Judge may decide on the level of compensation that I should be entitled to after deducting what I owe Kent Police on behalf of the State by way of the penalty fine for the speed excess that I accept liablity for because it has not been possible for Kent Police to accept my Counter Claim for £5 million through its due process with regard to the notification that I received. Accordingly, please send me a N1 Claim Form for this purpose.
2. You already have my Full Fee Remission Form from earlier proceedings but if a fresh one is required I am of course willing to supply the information required, in which case please send me the appropriate Fee Remission Form.
Yours sincerely

For the attention of Mr David Currie, Manager
Dear Sir
1. Thank you for your letter dated 30 November 2016 to which I responded by completing the Notice of Intended Prosecution admitting that I was driving the car when the speed limit was exceeded and hence my admission of liablity as regards the penalty fine.
2. This letter is my counter claim against Kent Police for failing in its statutory duties towards me by apprehending the criminals that I have brought to your attention and as such I would like to have a Hearing before a judge to consider this counter claim application. In this regard I attach a copy of the email that I sent the Queens Bench Division of the High Court to which no reply has been received by me thereby providing proof that the State has organised the persecution on me which has denied my up to £5 million in compensation that the Judge is required hereby to adjudicate on – please see the document attached that is named ToQueensBenchHighCourt11Nov2016.docx. Please note that this Counter Claim is made solely against Kent Police for its inaction. Whatever I am required to pay in relation to this car speed offence should be deducted from the amount that I am claiming from Kent Police through the processing of this counter claim.
3. I look forward to your reply as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely
Dr Shantanu Panigrahi 3 Hoath Lane Gilllingham Kent ME8 0SL

Dear Sir
1. Please refer to my earlier correspondence with you concerning proceedings relating to Medway Council, the NHS and the Labour Party. I wish to add these solicitors to the names of those culprits who victimised me. I have no choice but to conduct my own proceedings as best as I am able to. Please let me know what further needs to be done to get this matter to a Hearing.
2. From that earlier correspondence it should be clear that I have applied to you for full Fee Remission.

On Friday, 11 November 2016, 13:48, Shan Panigrahi wrote CC Terence Channer Lutomi Kasumu :
To The Legal Ombudsman
Dear Sir
1. On 1 November at 6.40 pm I sent you an email confirming to you that this case needs to be fast tracked in that waiting for the full 8 week period of consultation was going to be of no benefit to either side.
2. The same evening at 9.36 pm I received another unsolicited email from Ms Lutomi Kasumu to add to the original one that had set in motion my recruitment of these solicitors to act on my behalf. Another exchange followed in which I was asked if I was prepared to pay the solicitor Terence Channer money up front for their work. I forwarded that email to Mr Terence Channer asking him if this was indeed what the solicitors were waiting for. There was no reply.
3. Ten full days have gone by and there has been no word from these solicitors and associate and my High Court proceedings are nowhere near being activated which has added to my mental suffering.
4. I am therefore seeking financial compensation from Scott Moncrieff and Associates, and depending on your judgement on this Case will initiate court proceedings against these solicitors.
5. Please therefore let me know what is the cause of the delay in your adjudication on this Case.
Yours sincerely
Dr Shantanu Panigrahi

Dear Sir/Madam,
1. Further to the recent emails that I sent you and letter dated 5 December 2014 (nay2016) that I have posted first class mail, I have this morning received an email from Medway County Court concerning these proceedings. Accordingly, I am required to inform you of this.
2. Please note that this ruling from the Medway County Court means that I am well within my rights to question the Judge on your capacity in terms of your aptitude and competence to act as the Police Force for the community of Kent.

Dear Dr Panigrahi
Notice of Intended Prosecution Number: 49350897
Thank you for your recent letter, received in connection with the above Notice of Intended Prosecution, the contents of which have been noted.
Unfortunately, the matter you are referring to in your correspondence has no bearing on this offence and consequently you are asked to indicate how you wish to proceed in accordance with the options outlined below.
The Fixed Penalty was introduced as a method of discharging liablility for an alleged offence without the requirement to attend a Court Hearing. Once issued, it offers the driver one of two options:-
1. Accept the Conditional Offer, or
2. Have the matter heard before a Magistrate in a Court of Law.
Should you wish to accept the Conditional Offer Fixed Penalty you should contact our office as soon as possible in order that further documents can be sent to you outlining what you should do in order to accept the Fixed Penalty.
Kent Police are however committed to increasing levels of road safety and reducing the number of people killed or seriously injured on our roads. As the alleged offence falls within a nationally agreed criteria this matter can be dealt with by you attending and completing a National Speed Awareness Course. I enclose information on what you should do if you wish to exercise this option which is time limited and can be withdrawn at any time.
Should you elect to attend a National Spped Awareness Course, upon successful completion you will have discharged your liability for the offence and the matter will be closed. You will not receive penalty points on your driving licence record.
If however you feel that you are not guilty of the offence and wish to contest the allegation you are advised to put your request in writing. This matter will then be referred for the issue of a Court Hearing and a summons will be issued in due course.
I trust this information is of assistance, and await written confirmation of your decision.
Yours sincerely
Mr D Currie
Head of Central Process Unit

Dear Sir/Madam
Please let me know whether this matter is sub-judice at Medway County Court in order for me to know whether I should stop corresponding with Kent Police in view of its intransigence until the Hearing that I have requested has taken place at this court.

There were no replies from Kent Police or Medway County Court. I was puzzled so sent the following email to Kent Police late in the evening:

Dear Mr Currie
1. I refer to your letter dated 8 December 2016 having the necessary legal advice on whether this matter is sub-judice at Medway County Court in my proceedings entitled ‘Dr Shantanu Panigrahi vs Kent Police’.
2. You write about my recent letter saying that the contents have been noted. It was not sent to you to note and file. It was sent to you to investigate the criminals listed and arrest them.
3. You write that ‘unfortunately, the matter you are referring to in your correspondence has no bearing on this offence’. I disagree with you entirely. Your ability and predisposition as a Police Force to consider the evidence of offences and crimes that I have brought to your attention has a marked bearing on the likelihood that you are engaging in the just disposal of these proceedings and I therefore need a Court of Law to examine the full extent of that evidence. The solicitors have now had their 8 weeks to reply and they have failed to do so and the Legal Ombudsman has still not written to me about the matter. You should have been made aware that I had initiated a private prosecution in this regard but this has thus far failed to materialise for reasons that are not known to me.
4. Please note that I have no intention of doing anything further on this matter until the court hearing has taken place, so do not send me any further documents as these will simply be noted and filed.
Yours sincerely
Dr Shantanu Panigrahi
