In the affidavit filed in support of the Writ petition, it is stated that both the petitioners have completed Engineering from Dr. Paul Raj Institute of Engineering College, Bhadrachalam. Having fallen in love with each other, they got married on 29.03.2005. The grievance of the petitioners is that on the complaint of the parents of the first petitioner, Crime No.83 of 2005 was registered by Bhadrachalam Police Station. It is alleged that the said complaint is a false complaint. With an apprehension that the parents of the first petitioner may interfere with their life and liberty, they approached this Court for protection. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents, it is stated that there was a complaint by the father of the first petitioner stating that from 28.03.2005, his daughter disappeared and she was kidnapped by the second petitioner herein. Basing on the complaint, crime No.83 of 2005 is registered for the offences punishable under Sections 366 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 and on 28.03.2005, the SI of Police took up the investigation. It is further stated in the counter affidavit that the petitioners have not approached the respondents for any protection or help, except sending one letter along with the photographs of their marriage. When the matter is taken up, learned Government Pleader for Home submitted that he is not aware of the outcome of the investigation in crime No.83 of 2005 of Bhadrachalam Police Station. Further, it is submitted that the petitioners did not represent for any grant of protection and as such, there was no action to consider their request. For the aforesaid reasons, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition. If there is any apprehension from the parents of the first petitioner in view of the marriage of the petitioners, they may approach the respondents by filing appropriate representation, as such the respondents shall consider the same and extend possible protection. Subject to the above, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________________ (R.SUBHASH REDDY, J) 17th September 2009 RRB
