THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.1005 of 2011 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a mandamus declaring the action of respondents 5 and 6 in threatening the petitioner and her husband for gold and money and interfering with her life and liberty, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the grievance of the petitioner that though there is no complaint and no crime is registered against her, the police are visiting their house and demanding money and gold. On instructions, it is submitted by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for respondents 1 to 4 that the petitioner’s husband, by name, Kumar Raja, involved in two criminal cases registered on the file of Railway Police Station, Tenali, Guntur District, on the complaint with regard to theft of gold from railway passengers. It is further submitted that Crime Nos.102 and 132 of 2002 were registered against him for the offence punishable under Section 379 IPC and Non-Bailable Warrants (NBWs) are pending against the husband of the petitioner since May, 2009 and he is absconding. It is also submitted that as NBWs are issued against the husband of the petitioner, the respondents police visited the house to execute the same but they neither demanded the petitioner and her husband for gold and money nor harassed and threatened them at any point of time. When the complaints are filed and the crimes are pending, it is the duty of the police to investigate into the same. More so, against the husband of the petitioner, cases were registered in Crime Nos.102 and 132 of 2002, in which, NBWs are pending for execution, as such, it is open to the police to visit the house of the petitioner to execute such warrants against her husband. In that view of the matter, the writ petition is devoid of merit and it is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 1st FEBRUARY, 2011. kvni
