Though initially injunction was granted and extended till up to 04.08.2006, thereafter, injunction was not extended. He further submits that he is in possession and enjoyment of the said property and the respondents 3 to 6 being influential persons, at their instance, the respondents 1 and 2 are interfering with the civil disputes between him and the respondents 3 to 6. He further submits that with regard to the illegal interference of the respondents 1 and 2, he made a representation dated 22.08.2007 but the respondents 1 and 2 are still interfering with the civil disputes. 2. I am not inclined to express any opinion as to whether at the instance of the unofficial respondents, the respondents 1 and 2 are interfering with the civil disputes of the petitioner or not; but I am of the opinion that the police cannot interfere with the civil disputes. If there is any complaint against the petitioner it is open for the police to register a case and investigate the same but they cannot interfere with civil rights and disputes in respect of the immovable property. 3. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the respondents 1 and 2 are directed not to interfere with the civil rights and disputes over the said property. However, this order will not preclude the respondents 1 and 2 to proceed against the petitioner in accordance with law if any complaint is made against the petitioner. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ V. ESWARAIAH, J August 28, 2007 DSK
