KURIAKOSE, J. ------------------------------- W.P.(C) No. 2439 OF 2007 ----------------------------------- Dated this the 22nd day of January, 2007 JUDGMENT Even though the petitioner through his counsel, Sri.Biju M. John submits that it was without issuing any show cause notice that Ext.P5 order cancelling the permit has been issued by the Panchayat, I am of the view that the petitioner can avail his statutory remedies against Ext.P5 and I dispose of the Writ Petition relegating the petitioner to statutory remedies. However, there will be a direction that in furtherance to Ext.P5, the compound wall already constructed by the petitioner will not be demolished by the Panchayat for a period of six weeks from today.
