ABDUL REHIM, JJ. ------------------------------------------------ W. P. C. No.18003 of 2011 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 29th day of July, 2011 JUDGMENT Abdul Rehim, J The petitioner is the wife of the 4th respondent. Petitioner is seeking police protection against the alleged threat and harassment caused by the 4th respondent with the help of respondents 5 and 6. It is contended that the 4th respondent had borrowed money from so many people by issuing documents of security and cheques and the respondents 5 and 6 came to the place of residence of the petitioner and tried to attack the petitioner, at the instigation of the creditors of the 4th respondent. It is contended that even though Ext.P2 complaint was filed before the police no effective steps were taken. Hence; this Writ Petition is filed. W. P. C. No.18003 of 2011 -2- 2. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the 4th respondent, the allegations were stoutly denied. However, it is conceded that the 4th respondent is not causing any threat or harassment to the petitioner or any other family members. On the other hand, an allegation is raised by the 4th respondent that, the petitioner had availed loan from respondents 5 and 6 and she had failed to repay the same. According to the 4th respondent, the respondents 5 and 6 are not in good terms with the petitioner only because the petitioner failed to make payment of the amounts. 3. Learned Government Pleader, on the basis of instructions received from 1st respondent, submitted that the 4th respondent had financial transactions with so many persons and on account of defaults committed, various persons are making demand for payment of money. However, it is submitted that no incident of any threat to life of the petitioner was reported. W. P. C. No.18003 of 2011 -3- 4. Under the above mentioned circumstances, we do not find any materials warranting issuance of any direction to respondents 1 to 3 to afford protection. However, if any particular information is received with respect to any attempted threat to the life of the petitioner or with respect to any trespass into the petitioner's house, the first respondent shall look into the same and take appropriate action permissible under law. 5. The Writ Petition is disposed of with the above observations. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE JUDGE C. K. ABDUL REHIM JUDGE kns/- W. P. C. No.18003 of 2011 -4-
