THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY and THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N. RAVI SHANKAR CONTEMPT CASE No.1181 of 2011 JUDGMENT (Per the Hon’ble Sri Justice A. Gopal Reddy): This contempt case is filed alleging violation of the order dated 29.03.2011 passed by this Court in W.A.No.326 of 2010, whereby this Court while dismissing the appeal directed as under: “In view of the peculiar circumstances of this case and since the appellants are already granted liberty in the writ petition for taking appropriate action for recovery of possession of the excess land alleged to be in occupation of the society and since the interim direction granted by this Court on 17.08.2010 in WAMP No.746 of 2010 to the effect not to allow third party interests to step in is in force till today, we deem it appropriate that such direction shall continue till the process of taking appropriate action for recovery of possession of the alleged excess land from the society is completed. Let there be a direction as such.” On 09.09.2011, the learned Special Government Pleader took notice on behalf of the respondents and represented that he will instruct his officers to stop further constructions until proceedings are initiated for recovery of possession of the property in the manner as directed by this Court. Recording the said submission, the matter was adjourned. Respondents 5 and 6 have filed counter affidavits stating that after disposal of the appeal, construction was stopped in March, 2011 itself; that on receipt of certified copy of the order, they once again made efforts for construction by procuring the material from 3rd week of August, 2011 and thereafter, on the advice of the office of the Advocate General, they have stopped the further construction activity and that the said construction was started on the misunderstanding of the orders of this Court. It is further stated that they never intended to disobey the order passed by this Court and tendered their unconditional apology for making such efforts for construction from the 3rd week of August, 2011. In the circumstances, we accept the apology tendered and discharge the contemnors from the proceedings initiated against them in the Contempt Case and the Contempt Case is accordingly closed. ______________________ A.
