                                    JUDGMENT

The above writ petition is filed with the following prayers:

i. to issue a writ in the nature of Mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding the respondents Nos. 1 and 2 to consider Ext. P3 complaint and the complaint submitted as per Ext. P4 and to afford sufficient and adequate Police protection to the lives of the petitioner and his family from the 3rd respondent and persons under him;

ii. Issue any such other appropriate writ, order or direction as this Hon'ble Court deems fit and proper considering the circumstances of the case in the interest of justice.

iii. Petitioner undertakes that the English translation of the vernacular documents will be produced as and when directed by this Hon'ble Court.

The main prayer in this writ petition is to issue a direction to

respondents 1 and 2 to consider Exts.P3 and P4 and afford adequate

police protection to the life of the petitioner and his family from the

3rd respondent and his men.

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned

Government Pleader.

Learned Government Pleader, after getting instructions,

submitted that a complaint is received from the petitioner alleging

threat from the 3rd respondent and the same was enquired into and it

is found that there is no threat from the 3rd respondent. If that is the

case, nothing survives in this case. No notice is also necessary to the

3rd respondent because it is submitted that there is no threat to the

life of the petitioner from the 3rd respondent. If there is any threat to

the life of the petitioner from the 3 rd respondent in future, the

petitioner is free to approach the 2 nd respondent with appropriate

complaint and if such a complaint is received, the 2 nd respondent will

do the needful in accordance to law.

With the above observation, this writ petition is disposed of.
