1 BEFORE THE MADURAI BENCH OF MADRAS HIGH COURT DATED: 19.10.2011 CORAM: THE HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE S.NAGAMUTHU CRL.O.P.(MD).No.10656 of 2011 The Dr.Zakir Hussain College Society, Ilayangudi, Sivagangai District, Rep by its Secretary cum Correspondent, V.M.Jafarulla Khan, S/o.V.M.Mohamed Kasim, Ilayangudi, Sivagangai District. : Petitioner Vs. 1.The Superintendent of Police, Sivagangai District, Sivagangai. 2.The Inspector of Police, Ilayangudi Police Station, Sivagangai District. : Respondents PRAYER: Petition is filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure to direct the second respondent to provide police protection to the petitioner's college, students and Lecturers on the basis of the complaint given by the petitioner dated 08.08.2011. For Petitioners : Mr.V.Kannan For Respondents : Mr.P.Kannidevan Government Advocate (Crl.Side) O R D E R The petitioner claims to be the Secretary cum Correspondent of Dr.Zakir Hussain College, Ilayangudi Village, Sivagangai District. According to him, there are rival parties for the said management and they are threatening him from administering the college peacefully. With the above allegation, the petitioner has come up with the present Criminal Original Petition seeking a direction to the second respondent police to provide protection to the petitioner's college, students and Lecturers on the basis of the complaint given by the petitioner dated 08.08.2011. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 2. In my considered view, in the absence of the rival parties, who claim right of management and who dispute the petitioner's right to administer the college, no order for police protection could be granted. Apart from this, the dispute appears to be a civil dispute, which cannot be resolved in a petition filed under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and the remedy for the petitioner lies elsewhere. 3. In such view of the matter, the Criminal Original Petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to work out his remedy in the manner known to law.
