IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) THURSDAY, THE TWENTYSIXTH DAY OF NOVEMBER TWO THOUSAND AND NINE PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION NO : 25630 of 2009 Between: Syed Farooque ..... PETITIONER AND The Superintendent of Police, Karimnagar District and others. .....RESPONDENT(S) HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA W.P.No.25630 of 2009 ORDER: In view of the civil disputes between the petitioner and the 4th respondent, the wife of the 4th respondent approached the Court of the Additional District Judge at Karimnagar and instituted O.S.No.68 of 2006. Despite the said factual aspect, it appears the 4th respondent again approached the police seeking their help to get the matter settled and because of the said approach, according to the petitioner, the respondents-police officials are interfering with the peaceful life and liberty of the petitioner and harassing him saying that the petitioner shall get the matter settled out of Court. Hence, he approached this Court and filed the present writ petition. 2. Apparently, there are civil disputes between the petitioenr and the 4th respondent, and in that connection, the wife of the 4th respondent approached the Civil Court and instituted a suit also. When the suit is pending, the parties shall get the matter settled through Court only, but not by the police, particularly, when the contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the dispute between the petitioner and the 4th respondent is civil in nature, in my considered view, the police have no business to interfere with their civil disputes. 3. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents-police officials not to interfere with the peaceful life and liberty of the petitioner insofar as the civil disputes between him and the 4th respondent are concerned. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ 26th November 2009 KVR
