JUDGMENT
The above writ petition is filed with the
following prayers;
i. Issue a writ of mandamus or any other writ order or direction, commanding the respondents 1 and 2 to afford adequate and effective police protection to the petitioner and his family members against the usage of the private road as per Exhibit P6 and P7 by the 4 th respondent and his henchmen.
ii. Issue a writ of mandamus or any other writ order or direction, commanding the 2nd respondent to take effective steps to redress the Exhibit P4 complaint filed by the petitioner.
iii. Issue such other writ order or direction, which is just and necessary in the facts and circumstances of the case.
2. When this matter came up for consideration on
11.06.2021, this Court passed the following order.
"Admit.
The learned Government Pleader accepts notice for respondent Nos.1 and 2. Sri.P.K.Manoj Kumar, learned Standing counsel takes notice for respondent No.3. Issue notice by speed post to respondent No.4.
There will be an interim order directing the 2nd respondent to ensure law and order is maintained."
WP(C) NO.12107/2021
3. Today, when this matter came up for
consideration, the learned counsel for the petitioner
submitted that the petitioner is a senior citizen.
The learned counsel conceded that there is a dispute
about a path way. According to the petitioner, there
is threat to the life of the petitioner from
respondent No.4 and their men. The learned counsel
for the petitioner submitted that there may be a
direction to protect the life of the petitioner from
the 4th respondent.
4. The learned Government Pleader submitted
that, there is a path way dispute between the
petitioner and the 4th respondent and the Police is
not in a position to interfere in that. But the
learned Government Pleader submitted that, if there is
any law and order problem, the Police will do the
needful in accordance with law.
5. Notice was issued to the 4th respondent. Even
now, the service to the 4th respondent is not
complete. The manner in which I am going to dispose
this writ petition, I think no further notice is WP(C) NO.12107/2021
necessary to the 4th respondent. If the 4th respondent
is aggrieved by any of the directions in this
judgment, the 4th respondent is free to file a review
petition.
6. Therefore, this Writ petition is disposed in
the following manner.
(i) If there is any law and order issue, the
petitioner is free to approach the 2nd respondent with
a representation.
(ii) If such a representation is received, the 2nd
respondent will do the needful to protect the law and
order and also the life of petitioner.
(iii) I make it clear that, all the contentions
of the petitioner and the 4th respondent about the
property and path way are left open and the same is to
be decided by a competent civil court.
