But the petitioner was eluding the police. 3. Since the petitioner has not been arrayed as an accused in the above case so far, the apprehension of arrest and harassment entertained by the petitioner is not well founded. The petitioner may co-operate with the investigation of the case. In case he is arrayed as an accused, he shall be entitled to have re-course to the reliefs available to him in law at that stage. Reserving the above right, this petition is dismissed. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE skj
