THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/12/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.M.JOSEPH & M.C.HARI RANI, JJ. ------------------------------------------------------ W.P.(C) No.37044 of 2010-E ---------------------------------------------- Dated, this the 17th day of December, 2010 J U D G M E N T K.M.Joseph, J. Petitioners have approached this Court seeking the following reliefs: “i) to issue a writ in the nature of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding the respondents 1 and 2 to consider and pass orders upon Exts.P12 and P13 representations and take appropriate action thereon to see that the petitioners are not evicted or harassed by respondents 3 and 4 under the pretext of any investigation or enquiry and pass such other orders in the interest of justice as this Hon'ble Court may deem just and fit in the facts and circumstances of this case. ii) to issue a writ in the nature of mandamus or any other appropriate writ order or direction commanding the respondents 3 and 4 not to harass the petitioners herein under the pretext of any investigation or enquiry and pass such other orders in the interest of justice as this Hon'ble Court may deem just and fit in the facts and circumstances of this case.” 2. Briefly put, the case of the petitioners is as follows. The Ist petitioner is a tenant of flat and 2nd petitioner WPC No.37044/2010 -2- is his wife and the 3rd petitioner is their daughter. There are suits filed by the Ist petitioner against the 5th respondent and certain others. As per Exts.P6 and P9 orders passed the petitioners cannot be forcibly evicted from the tenanted premises otherwise than due process of law. There is considerable nuisance caused on account of the dance practice of the 8th respondent at odd hours in her flat which is lying one flat above the tenanted premises of the petitioners, which flat is lying vacant. The 5th respondent who is inimical to the petitioners on account of Exts.P3 and P4 suits and respondents 6 and 7 have caused the 8th respondent to prefer false and frivolous complaints against the petitioners before respondents 3 and 4 and the 3rd respondent has without stating any reason summoned the Ist petitioner. Petitioners apprehending harassment from respondents 3 and 4 have submitted Exts.P12 and P13 representations. There is inaction on the same. 3. Learned Government Pleader submits that a complaint was received from Sri.K.Ravindran Nair, President of the Flat Owner's Association that the Ist petitioner is WPC No.37044/2010 -3- verbally abusing the children and that, he manhandled the 10th respondent and crime No.897/2010 of Museum Police Station has been registered against the Ist petitioner under Section 294B, 506 (1), 342, 323 IPC. Investigation is being done. He would submit that investigation will be done in accordance with law and that the official respondents will not interfere in the civil dispute between the parties. We record the said submission and close the writ petition. It is open to the petitioners to prosecute Exts.P12 and P13 before concerned authority. (K.M.JOSEPH) JUDGE. (M.C.HARI RANI) JUDGE. MS
