----------------------------------------------

R.P. No.100 of 2019 [arising out of the impugned judgment dated 08.10.2018 in W.P.(C) No.32669/2018] & W.P.(C) No.32669 of 2018

-----------------------------------------------

Dated this the 08th day of July, 2021

ORDER/JUDGMENT

Aforecaptioned review petition has been filed by a third party

to the writ petition seeking for review and recall of the impugned

judgment dated 08.07.2018 rendered by this Court in W.P.(C)

No.32669/2018 filed by the 1st respondent herein.

2. The main ground in the Review Petition is that the same

has been filed by a third party in the above writ petition (civil),

stating that the present writ petition has been filed on 05.10.2018,

without disclosing the vital and highly crucial factual aspects

regarding the dismissal of W.P.(C) No.25512/2018 filed by the very

same writ petitioner herein, which sought directions from this

Court for police protection for measurement and survey of the

subject property, etc.

3. Heard Sri.P.B. Krishnan, learned counsel appearing for R.P. No.100/2019

the review petitioner/third party, Sri.S.Abhilash, learned counsel

appearing for the writ petitioner/1st respondent in the review

petition and Sri.Saigi Jacob Palatty, learned Senior Government

Pleader appearing for respondents 1-3 in the writ

petition/respondents 2-4 in the review petition.

4. Today when the matter has been taken up for

consideration Sri.S.Abhilash, the learned counsel appearing for the

writ petitioner/1st respondent in the review petition, would submit

on the basis of instructions of his party that leave may be granted to

the writ petitioner to withdraw the abovesaid W.P.(C)

No.32669/2018 with liberty to him to file a fresh writ petition

(civil), on the subject matter after stating all the relevant factual

aspects of this case and after impleading the review petitioner as

well, etc.

5. Sri.P.B. Krishnan, the learned counsel appearing for the

review petitioner has no serious objection to this course of action,

provided that this Court recalls the impugned judgment dated

08.10.2018, rendered in the present W.P.(C) No.32669/2018 and

dismisses the said writ petition and that in case this Court is

inclined to grant liberty to the petitioner, then it may be made clear R.P. No.100/2019

that it shall be only after disclosure of all relevant information in

such writ proceedings and also after impleading the review

petitioner as an additional respondent in those proceedings.

6. Accordingly it is ordered that the impugned judgment

dated 08.1.2018, rendered by this Court in W.P.(C) No.32669/2018

will stand recalled. Further it is ordered that W.P.(C)

No.32669/2018 will stand dismissed as withdrawn with liberty of

the petitioner to work out his remedies in the manner known to law,

but subject to the condition that the petitioner shall state all

relevant factual aspects in the matter in such proceedings and after

impleading the present review petitioner as an additional

respondent in this case.

With these observations and directions, the review petition

will stand disposed of and the writ petition (civil) will stand

dismissed as withdrawn with the said liberty.
