4.Considering the circumstances, this Petition is disposed of directing the petitioner to appear before the respondent police in the enquiry in C.No.N4/15920/1753/2020 dated 11.07.2023 and the respondent police are directed to register a case against the petitioner, in case if he has committed any offence under any of the enactments. If not, the respondent police are not expected to intervene in the civil dispute between the parties and to dispose of the representation of the respondent No.6 dated 25.07.2023 within a period of 2 weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
