The writ petition has been filed praying for permitting to settle the liability by accepting the offer that has been made. There is a further prayer to release the documents. 2. From the counter affidavit filed it is disclosed that the petitioner is also a guarantor to another loan in respect of which more than Rs.13 lakhs is due to the bank. On account of this, the bank states its unwillingness to release the documents as sought for by the petitioner. 3. At that stage, pleading ignorance of the loan transaction mentioned by the bank in respect of which the aforesaid liability has accrued, petitioner has filed Ext.P3 representation before the bank seeking disclosure of certain information. It is now submitted that WP(C) 3117/08 Page numbers the bank may be asked to pass orders on the representation so made. 4. I heard the standing counsel appearing for the bank which reiterates the plea in the counter affidavit filed. 5. Taking into account the controversy that is prevailing between the parties, I think it is only reasonable that the bank itself orders on Ext.P3. With this direction the writ petition is closed.
