K.Kanagadas v. The Superintendent of Police

ORDER This Criminal Original Petition is filed to direct the respondents 1 to 3 to provide protection to the petitioners and their family for their life and limb to release the lock and open the gate to the pathway of their lands in T.S Nos.8/2 and 8/4 situated at ward B Block 10 of the Kodaikanal Town Dindigul District based on the judgment in O.S.No.43 of 2017 dated 23.10.2018 on the file of the District Munisif Cum Judicial Magistrate Kodaikanal.

¶2In the prayer it is wrongly stated that a suit in O.S.No.43 of 2017 is decreed on 23.10.2018 in favour of the petitioner. Actually it is pending before the trial Court namely the Distirct Munsif Court, Kodaikanal. Pending the civil process, representation was made by the petitioner seeking police protection. This is not at all maintainable.

¶3Learned counsel for the fourth respondent is also entered appearance.

¶4Learned counsel for the petitioner stated that a suit is filed only by the petitioners herein.

¶5Whatever it may be, pending civil process, there is no question of interference either by this Court or by the police. The petitioners can work out remedy in the pending suit itself.

¶6Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed.
