Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.S.RAVINDER REDDY Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR HOME The Court made the following : O R D E R:- The main grievance of the petitioner is that that though he is not involved in any criminal case, the 1st respondent-Station House Officer, Godavarikhani Town Police Station, at the behest of the unofficial respondent, is summoning him and the members of his family to the police station and demanding him to handover his land to the unofficial respondent and unnecessarily interfering in civil dispute. Hence, he filed the present writ petition seeking appropriate directions to the official respondent. The 1st respondent has filed counter affidavit stating that the 2nd respondent filed a private complaint before the Court of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Godavarikhani, against the petitioner and others, which was forwarded to him for investigation and report. The same was registered as a case in Cr. No.98 of 2009 for the offences punishable under Sections 323, 448, 506 and 420 IPC, and the investigation is in progress. He denied that he summoned the petitioner and his family members to the police station at any point of time, much less compelled the petitioner to give his land to the unofficial respondent and settle the dispute with her. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Home appearing for the 1st respondent. In view of the specific averments made in the counter affidavit filed by the 1st respondent that he never summoned either the petitioner or the members of his family to the Police Station and never forced him to give his land to the 2nd respondent much less threatened him to settle the dispute with her, no orders need be passed in the writ petition. Hence, the writ petition is closed. No costs. ______________ N.V.RAMANA, J 8th April, 2009 bcj
