Aggrieved by the same, an appeal vide A.S.No.2307 of 1991 was preferred, which was dismissed on 07.09.2011. Subsequently, the matter was settled and properties were partitioned among the family members in the year 1996.

4. In view of the aforesaid submission, the writ petition is disposed of directing respondent Nos.4 and 5 not to interfere with the civil disputes between the petitioner and respondent No.6 in any manner and if the presence of the petitioner is required for the purpose of investigation in Crime No.189 of 2023, the respondents police shall strictly follow the procedure as prescribed by law.
