WPCRL No. 785 of 2010 Hon. Prafulla C. Pant, J. Hon. Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. None present for the writ petitioners. Mr. B.S. Parihar, Brief Holder, present for the State. By means of this writ petition, the petitioners have sought writ in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondents No. 1 and 2, to provide them protection. A counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of respondents No. 1 and 2, which shows that petitioner No. 2 has given in writing to the Station House Officer of Police Station Kotwali Roorkee, that now the dispute between the parties has already been settled, and there is no need of protection. In view of the above development, this writ petition has become infructuous. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) (Prafulla C. Pant, J.) 08.11.2010 HN
