THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
10.09.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
WP(C) NO. 2736 OF 2020
-2-
JUDGMENT
The petitioner has approached this Court
making various allegations against respondents 3
to 5, thus asserting that he apprehends
intimidation and threat from them, even to his
life.
2. The petitioner says that there had been
earlier attempts from respondents 3 to 5 to harm
his life; and that he had approached the Police,
which resulted in Ext.P8 FIR being registered. He
says that he is, however, apprehensive of taking
further legal action against respondents 3 to 5,
since they have protection of the Scheduled Caste
and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities)
Act, 1989; and, therefore, that he was constrained
to approach the Police through Ext.P6 requesting
protection. He alleges that, however, no action
has been taken by the 2nd respondent - Sub WP(C) NO. 2736 OF 2020
Inspector of Police on his request, thus
constraining him to approach this Court, through
this writ petition.
3. I have heard Sri.C.M.Mohammed Iqubal -
learned counsel for the petitioner; Sri.Venugopal
- learned counsel appearing for respondents 3 to 5
and the learned Government Pleader -
Sri.E.C.Bineesh appearing for respondents 1 and 2.
4. Sri.E.C.Bineesh - learned Government
Pleader, submitted that, contrary to the
allegations of the petitioner, there have been no
law and order issues in the area in question at
all and that the petitioner's life is being
properly and effectively protected. He submitted
that, therefore, no further orders need to be
issued against respondents 1 and 2.
5. Sri.Venugopal - learned counsel for
respondents 3 to 5, submitted that there are
several civil disputes between the parties, and WP(C) NO. 2736 OF 2020
that his clients believe that this writ petition
has been filed by the petitioner with a
confutative intention of forcing them to accede to
his demands without approaching the competent
Civil Courts and other appropriate Forums. He
submitted that, therefore, this writ petition may
not be allowed; however, adding that his clients
have not and will not cause any threat or
intimidation to the petitioner, nor commit any act
in violation of law in any manner.
6. Taking note of the afore submissions and
since this Court cannot enter into the merits of
the civil disputes between the parties, if any, I
deem it appropriate that this writ petition be
ordered, directing the 2nd respondent to
sufficiently protect the life of the petitioner.
In the afore circumstances, I allow this writ
petition and direct the 2nd respondent - Sub
Inspector of Police, to afford adequate and WP(C) NO. 2736 OF 2020
effective protection to the life of the petitioner
from any threat or intimidation from any source,
including the party respondents; however, making
it clear that they shall not intervene in any
civil disputes between the parties, and that none
of them will construe this above direction to mean
that they will obtain any undue advantage with
respect to the same before any Court or Forum.
