JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed challenging Ext.P1 order of suspension and Ext.P2 memo. 2. The petitioner was working on contract basis in the second respondent Co-operative Medical College as Professor and Head, Department of Anatomy. One of the prayers in the writ petition is to restrain the respondents from exhibiting cadavers, skeletons, specimens, etc. used for scientific research and medical students' education. The dispute arose when they were exhibited in a stall at Ambalappuzha on 16.7.2010. According to the petitioner, it was really unethical on the part of the respondents to do the same and in spite of the objection of the petitioner, they were forcibly taken there and were exhibited also. 3. A statement has been filed by the respondents and the stand taken is that the petitioner disobeyed the directions of the second respondent. 3. The petitioner has already resigned from service. It is submitted on behalf of the second respondent that the eligible benefits due to the petitioner, will be released. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted wpc 23691/2010 2 that leaving open the remedy of the petitioner to agitate the grievance regarding the wrong conduct of the College in exhibiting the cadavers, skeletons, etc. in the Coir Festival, this writ petition can be closed. 4. Therefore, the admissible benefits due to the petitioner will be released within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The grievance raised by the petitioner with regard to the action of the second respondent and the remedy thereon are left open. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
