Govt. Pleader appears for respondents 1 and 2. Notice to respondent No.3 dispensed with preserving her right to seek review of the judgment, if aggrieved. 2. Petitioner alleges that she had repaid all amounts due to the third respondent under a chitty transaction . However, though the third respondent is in possession of certain documents, she is filing complaints before different courts and police officials. 3. We are clear in our mind that every complaint before the police officials or courts will take its usual course in accordance with law. The petitioner seems to be apprehensive of harassments at the hands of the police. She had obtained an order from the Madras High Court interdicting the police from harassing her. If there is any complaint against the petitioner, the police may have to investigate it and proceed with in accordance with law. However, the police would WPC.No.28652/2010 2 not interfere with matters which are purely civil disputes. Also, the petitioner would not be subjected to any questioning etc., otherwise than in terms of law. Respondent No.2 is directed to abide by the aforesaid. The writ petition is ordered accordingly.
