NO. 27435 OF 2005 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 9th day of July, 2009 JUDGMENT W.P.C. is filed for compensation and other relief for the alleged illegal detention of the petitioner by police. However, it is seen that petitioner was charge sheeted and he was acquitted later. Further petitioner's detention was through remand order passed by the Magistrate. Moreover, even after making specific allegations against police officials, petitioner has not chosen to implead them as parties in this WPC. In the circumstances, I do not find any merit in the W.P.C. W.P.C. is accordingly dismissed. (C.N. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR) Judge kk 2
