Radhakrishnan, J, Petitioner seeks a direction for police protection. He seeks such an order in relation to his alleged right to offer prayers in a place of worship under the third respondent's control. As matters stand now, the decree in his favour stands set aside by the lower appellate court. He has challenged the order of remand in that matter by instituting F.A.O. 109 of 2009. We are clear in our mind that no police protection can be sought for by the petitioner on the basis of an order which is yet to come in F.A.O. 109 of 2009. Therefore, we close this writ petition without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to seek appropriate reliefs from the police for assistance and protection depending upon his success ultimately in the matter in connection with which FAO. 109 of 2009 is filed. WPC.21234/2009. 2 Writ Petition is ordered accordingly. Thottathil B. Radhakrishnan, Judge P. Bhavadasan, Judge sb.
