HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO. 18770 OF 2010 Tuesday, the Tenth day of August, Two Thousand and Ten Between N.Narayana and another Petitioners AND The Station House Officer, P.S. Musheerabad, Hyderabad and others Respondents ORAL ORDER: The grievance of the petitioners is that the Station House Officer, Musheerabad Police Station, Respondent No.1, is interfering in the civil dispute pertaining to house bearing No. 1-7-495/15, Harinagar, Zamistanpur, Musheerabad, Hyderabad, at the behest of Respondent No.3. In his counter affidavit, the Inspector of Police, Musheerabad Police Station, Hyderabad, stated that one Smt. R.Anitha, wife of the second respondent, who is no other than the son of the petitioners, filed a complaint against the petitioners with regard to the subject property alleging that they were interfering with her possession. As the dispute appeared to be primarily civil in nature, it is stated that the police authorities advised her to settle the dispute before a competent court. It is further stated that no case has been registered basing on the complaint made by the wife of the second respondent. The Officer further stated that the petitioners were never summoned to the police station and that the police had not interfered with their possession and enjoyment of the subject property. It is further stated that the writ petition was filed on an apprehension caused by the complaint made by the wife of the second respondent. In the light of the counter affidavit, it is clear that the dispute between the petitioners and their daughter-in-law is purely civil in nature and the police treating the same as such refused to interfere in the matter. The writ petition is therefore devoid of cause and is accordingly dismissed. No costs. __________________ Justice Sanjay Kumar August 10, 2010 MAS
