JUDGMENT
This writ petition is filed with following prayers:
i. Issue a writ of Mandamus or any other writ, or orders commanding the respondents 4 to 8 to grant police protection to the petitioners, their family members and employees of the petitioners to thwart and avert the attempted offences of the respondents 1 to 3 and by their supporters. ii. Issue a writ of Mandamus or any other writ, or order commanding respondents 4 to 8 to monitor the movements and phone calls of the respondents 1 to 3 and by their followers. iii. Issue a writ of Mandamus or any other writ or order commanding the respondents 4 to 8 to give police protection to the petitioners Ext P1 properties.
iv. Issue such other orders as deemed fit by this Hon'ble court.
2. The counsel for the petitioners conceded that two
civil suits are pending before the civil court with regard to the
issue mentioned in the writ petition. But the counsel W.P.(C).No.27337/2019
submitted that there is apprehension of danger to the life of
the petitioners. The submission of the petitioners is that there
may be a direction to protect the life of the petitioners and an
order to maintain the law and order situation. The
Government Pleader submitted that if there is any law and
order issue, the Police will do the needful in accordance to
law.
In the light of the above submission, I think this writ
petition can be disposed in the following manner:
1. If there is any law and order issue, the petitioners
are free to approach the Station House Officer
concerned with a representation/complaint.
2. If such a representation/complaint is received,
the Station House Officer will do the needful to
protect law and order.
3. All other contentions of the petitioners and the
contesting respondents are left open.
With the above observations, this writ petition is
disposed of.
