S.S. SARON, J. The petitioners who have solemnized their marriage amongst themselves on 2.2.2007 have, by way of the present petition under Section 482 CrPC, approached this Court seeking the issuance of directions to SSP Feorzepur (respondent-2) and SHO Police Station Guru Har Sahai (respondent-3) to protect their life and liberty and also their property from respondents-4 to 6 who are the relatives of petitioner-1. Both the petitioners, it is stated, are major. The date of birth of petitioner-1 is 4.4.1988 and that of petitioner-2 is in the month of February 1986. The petitioners developed a liking for each other and they solemnized their marriage. The photographs showing the solemnization of their marriage have been placed on record as Annexures P3 and P4. It is stated that when respondents-4 to 6 came to know regarding the solemnization of the marriage of the petitioners, they started interfering in their matrimonial life. They threatened the petitioners that they would kill them as and when they got chance. On 8.5.2007, respondents-4 to 6 along with two unidentified persons, it is stated, came to the house of the 1 Criminal Misc 31663-M of 2007 petitioners at village Tulsiwala. They were armed with deadly weapons and threatened the petitioners. Regarding this occurrence, the petitioners informed the SHO Police Station, Guru Har Sahai (respondent-3) on the next day for taking legal action against respondents-4 to 6. However, till date, no action has been taken. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioners and perusing the record, it may be noticed that though the petitioners have stated that they approached the SHO, Police Station Guru Har Sahai (respondent-3) with regarding to the occurrence of 8.5.2007, however, nothing has been placed on record to show any such communication made by the petitioners to the SHO Police Station Guru Har Sahai. Therefore, this petition is disposed of with a direction to respondents-2 and 3 that in case the petitioners approach them setting out their grievances as have been made in the present petition, the same would be duly looked into by them independently and in accordance with law. 17.5.2007.
