JUDGMENT
This is a writ petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution
of India seeking to issue a direction to the 5 th respondent to consider
Ext.P1 complaint and take appropriate steps. The grievance of the
petitioner is that he was on receipt of obscene materials from unknown
sources through his Whats App on regular basis. Even though the
police officials were duly alerted, they are not taking any action
against the culprits.
2. Now on instruction, the learned Senior Public Prosecutor
has submitted that a crime has already registered as Crime
No.684/2021 in Chengannur Police Station, alleging offence under
Section 120 (o) of the Kerala Police Act and Section 67 of the IT Act.
In the light of the submission, the petition has become infructuous.
Recording the above submission the writ petition is closed.
