R1 & R2 BY SRI. HRITHWIK C.S., SENIOR PUBLIC PROSECUTOR
THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
03.09.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
W.P.(C.).No.4819 OF 2021 3
JUDGMENT
This is a petition filed under Section 226 of the Constitution
seeking the following relief:-
"i) Issue a writ in the nature of mandamus or such other writ, direction or orders directing the 1st respondent to consider and dispose Exhibit P2 by conducting a proper investigation into these matters within time limit framed by this Hon'ble court."
2. I heard the learned counsel for the petitioners as well as
the learned Senior Public Prosecutor.
3. The grievance of the petitioners is that even though
Ext.P2 petition was preferred before the first respondent, no action
was taken. The learned Senior Public Prosecutor has submitted that
the Station House Officer, Parippally has already taken a call on
similar petition filed before the Station House Officer and he has
come to the conclusion that the dispute is civil in nature and that
has been communicated to the petitioners also. That means, the
petitioners can approach appropriate forum for redressing their
grievances. No relief can be granted so long as Ext.P2 has already
been disposed of by the first respondent.
In the circumstances, the writ petition is closed.
