And Another. … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.12580 OF 2010 O R D E R The petitioners assail the action of the Police Authorities in locking their house property, including Makhan, in Kota Street, Pamidi Village and Mandal, Anantapur District, and the consequential inaction upon their legal notice seeking the removal of the said locks. It is the case of the petitioners that they filed O.S.No.30 of 2007 on the file of the Junior Civil Judge, Gooty, against two individuals seeking a permanent injunction restraining them and their men from trespassing into the subject property. The said suit was decreed on 25.01.2010. In the meanwhile, in the year 2007 itself, the Sub-Inspector of Police, Pamidi Village, locked their property, thereby adversely affecting their interests. The Sub-Inspector of Police, Pamidi Village, filed a counter affidavit stating that the locks on the petitioners’ property bearing Door Nos.6/250, 6/251 and 6/252, including the Makhan, at Kota Street, Pamidi Village and Mandal, Anantapur District, have been removed. In the light of the aforestated development, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for adjudication. However, in the light of the injunction granted by the competent Civil Court, which is said to be subsisting, the Police are duty bound to honour the same and shall not interfere with the petitioners’ possession over the subject property except in accordance with law. The Writ Petition is disposed of with the aforestated directions. No costs. ---------------------------- SANJAY KUMAR, J. 14TH JULY, 2010 PGS/VGSR
