PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE & P.BHAVADASAN, JJ. -------------------------------------------------------- WP(C) No.16721 of 2011-M -------------------------------------------------------- Dated this, the 6th day of July 2011 Judgment Pius.C.Kuriakose, J. The grievance voiced by the petitioner in this writ petition is that the police officials are compelling him to settle certain civil disputes between him and respondents 5 to 7. On considering this writ petition for admission, this court on 22.06.2011 passed the following order : “Heard. Admitted. Notice given and the learned Government Pleader appears for respondents 1 to 4. Issue notice to respondents 5 to 7. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays and is accordingly permitted to take out notice to respondents 5 to 7 by speed post. Verify service and call again on 06.07.2011. There shall be an interim direction that R2 to R4 shall not, in any way, compel the petitioner to settle the civil disputes between R5 to R7 in the meantime.” WP(C) 16721/11 2 Today, the learned Government Pleader submitted upon instruction that the police has no intention to compel the petitioner to settle any of the civil disputes with respondents 5 to 7 or anybody else. But, according to the learned Government Pleader, the police has registered Crime No.531/10 under Ss.341 and 323 IPC based on a complaint submitted by one Mr.Vivekanandan, who is a Taluk Panchayat member. Having considered the submissions of Sri.Jamsheed Hafiz, learned counsel for the appellant and Smt.Charisma, learned Government Pleader and having gone through the averments in the writ petition, we are of the view that the interim order dated 22.06.211 grants to the petitioner all reliefs that we can legitimately aspire for in this writ petition. We dispose of the writ petition, confirming the interim order dated 22.06.2011 directing respondents 2 to 4 not to compel the petitioner to settle any civil dispute between him and respondents 5 to 7. As for the crime registered against the petitioner, WP(C) 16721/11 3 it is needless to mention that the police have the permission to investigate into that crime.
