JUDGMENT Balakrishnan Nair,J The petitioner seeks police protection for removing farm produce. The obstruction is allegedly caused by respondents 2 to 4. This Court has already passed an interim order on 03.04.2007 ordering police protection. The respondents have not filed any counter. In view of the above position, the writ petition is disposed of making the interim order absolute. If the workers or the unions have any right against the petitioner, they may move the statutory authorities and establish the same. In that event, the police protection will be subjected to such orders. K. BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, JUDGE. HARUN-UL-RASHID,JUDGE. rv
