IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. No.M-24196 of 2011 (O & M) Date of decision: 10.08.2011 Jaswant Kaur and another ..... Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and others ..... Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr.Amit Dhawan, Advocate, for the petitioners. **** RAJAN GUPTA, J.: (Oral) This is a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. praying for issuance of directions to respondent No.1 to 4 to protect life and liberty of the petitioners, as they apprehend threat at the hands of respondents No.5 to 7. Learned counsel submits that petitioners have purchased certain property from Gurmeet Singh and a civil suit regarding said property is pending in the court of Civil Judge, Dasuya. He submits that life and liberty of the petitioners is in danger as they have been harassed at the behest of respondents No.5 to 7. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioners. It appears that there is a civil dispute between the parties. There is nothing on record to show that life and liberty of the petitioners is under any threat. Needless to observe that even otherwise it is the constitutional obligation of the State to protect life and liberty of the citizens. No interference in inherent jurisdiction of this Court is called for. Disposed of. (RAJAN GUPTA) JUDGE August 10, 2011 sukhpreet
