This is a petition for police protection. It is the case of the petitioner that because of the liabilities incurred by the brother of the petitioner who committed suicide, respondents 4 to 8 and others are threatening their lives and they want police protection. An interim order of protection for life was already granted on 21.12.2006. Counsel for respondents 4 to 8 submitted that large amounts were collected from neighbours and various persons by the firm called “Lizzy Finance and Investments” and Lizzy is the name of petitioner's daughter and petitioner is conducting a firm by name “Lizzy Enterprises” which is doing business in cement alone as mentioned in the petition. Large amounts are due and depositors are demanding to pay back the money and the real facts are suppressed by the petitioner. The investors of the Lizzy finance can demand money and take appropriate action according to law. Respondents submitted that they will not assault the petitioner or his family members. In fact they want to protect their lives as only if they are alive, they can realise the amount. It is also submitted that petitioner is engaging gundas to attack people who are demanding back the W.P.(C).34213/2006 2 amounts. In the above circumstances, without expressing any opinion regarding the disputes between the parties and without prejudice to the rights of the investors in realising the money, we direct the police to see that law and order is maintained and lives of both parties are not endangered. With the above observations this writ petition is disposed of accordingly. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE K.P.BALACHANDRAN JUDGE prp
