The Court made the following: ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a Mandamus to declare the action of respondents in harassing and threatening the petitioners with arrest without showing them as accused in Crime No.6 of 2010 as illegal and arbitrary. Father of the first petitioner and uncle of the second petitioner, by name, Mr. Majeed Khan was allegedly attacked by one Mr. Gulam Ghouse Majid @ Abdul Majid at the former’s house and the said person has succumbed to the injuries. In connection with the said incident, Crime No.5 of 2010 was registered. As a sequel to the said incident, the said Gulam Ghouse Majid was allegedly attacked by the family members of the deceased and Crime No.6 of 2010 was registered in respect thereof. In the F.I.R. relating to the said case, against the column for name of the accused, ‘Majeed Khan’s family members’ was shown as accused. The grievance of the petitioners is that though they are not specifically named in the F.I.R., they are being harassed by the Police in the name of investigation. At the hearing, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home submitted that though the petitioners are not specifically named in the F.I.R, as they are admittedly son and nephew of the deceased Majeed Khan, they are part of the family of the said Majeed Khan and that in connection with the investigation, they are being interrogated. She stated that the Police have not been harassing the petitioners and that the investigation is being done in accordance with law without violating the petitioners’ rights. Having regard to the above submissions of the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.4 to complete the investigation and file charge sheet at an early date. If the petitioners are found involved in the offence, action can be taken against them in accordance with law. However, while dealing with the petitioners, respondent Nos.3 and 4 shall act in accordance with law. As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, W.P.M.P. No.7343 of 2010, filed by the petitioners for interim relief, is disposed of as infructuous. ________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 26th March, 2010 GHN
