14.01.2016, the third respondent had executed a sale deed in Document No.211 of 2016 favouring his daughter-in-law, Jessica, for which the petitioner's brother's son Vinoth Kumar had filed a Writ Petition in W.P.No.18039/2016 to cancel the said sale deed as it was created by using forged document. The SRO, Ganapathy, in Na.Ka.No.384/2016 had caused for enquiry and after enquiry, the disputed Document No.211/2016 was cancelled and a complaint was lodged against the third respondent and he was warned not to indulge in these kind of activities and not to enter or disrupt the peaceful possession of the petitioner.

¶4On 06.02.2026, one Matheshwaran and Gunasekaran have produced a sale agreement in Doc.No.1037/2026 as though the third respondent had executed the same. Thereafter, the third respondent along with 10 goondas, visited the property of the petitioner and threatened her. Hence, the petitioner had given a representation dated 06.03.2026, to the respondent police seeking police protection and to take action against the third respondent. In the absence of any response from the respondents so far, the present petition has been filed by the petitioner. Page4 of 6
