RESPONDENTS' EXHIBITS: NIL //true copy// P.S. To Judge SK/- KURIAN JOSEPH & C.T.RAVIKUMAR, JJ. ---------------------------------------- W.P.(C).No.27562 of 2009 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 30th day of November, 2009 JUDGMENT Kurian Joseph, J. The writ petition is filed with the following prayer: (A) Issue a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ directing the first respondent to render sufficient Police protection to the life of the petitioner from respondents 2 and 3 and their men; 2. Finding an element of settlement, we directed the parties to be present before this curt. We also had the assistance of Smt.M.A.Zohra, as the mediator. Though several rounds of discussions were held, it appears that the parties, who were brothers, found it difficult to arrive at a settlement in the true spirit of a give and take attitude. 3. Today, the petitioner, along with his sisters, who are respondents 2 and 3, is present before this court. Learned counsel for respondents 2 and 3 submits W.P.(C).No.27562 of 2009 :: 2 :: that the suggestion regarding the settlement of the civil suit is not acceptable to them. Unfortunately, this court is not in a position to purchase peace among the members from the same tap. Since one of the brothers apprehends threat to his life and property, there will be a direction to the 1st respondent to ensure that law and order is maintained and sufficient protection is given to the life of the petitioner and members of family and also to his property, as and when requested. There will also be a direction to the petitioner and respondents 2 and 3 to pay an amount of Rs.2,500/- each (3 x 2,500) to the mediator, within 10 days from today. Writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- (KURIAN JOSEPH) JUDGE Sd/- (C.T.RAVIKUMAR) JUDGE SK/- //true copy// P.S. to Judge.
