JUDGMENT
Dated this the 7th day of April, 2022
Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned
Government Pleader. Though notice is served on respondents 3 to 5,
there is no appearance for the said respondents.
2. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the
party respondents have preferred a suit before the Munsiff Court
claiming a right to use the pathway to the petitioner's property which
had been dismissed by Ext.P2 judgment dated 31.01.2015. It is
therefore contended that the party respondents have no claim over the
property or the pathway in question.
3. The learned Government Pleader submits that the dispute between
the parties is in the nature of a civil dispute with regard to the use of a
pathway and there is no law and order situation prevalent.
4. However, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the
petitioner requires police protection for the construction of a boundary
wall.
WP(C) NO. 5977 OF 2022
5. In case the petitioner faces any threat or obstruction from
respondents 3 to 5 for the constructions as permitted by law, the
petitioner may inform the 2nd respondent who shall take appropriate
steps to afford necessary protection to the life of the petitioner, his
family and employees.
This writ petition is ordered accordingly.
