KURIAN JOSEPH & K.T.SANKARAN, JJ. ----------------------------------------- W.P(Crl.)No.368 of 2008 ----------------------------------------- Dated this the 4th day of November, 2008 JUDGMENT Kurian Joseph,J. Petitioner is present. Sri.P.C.Thomas, the Caretaker of Government Juvenile Home, Thiruvanchoor is present. Sri.Mohan and Sri.Jayan, Head Constable and Constable respectively of Ettumanoor Police Station are also present. 2. The Police have produced Master Jishnu. We have appointed Smt.Mareena Joseph, learned counsel practising in this court as Conciliator. The learned Conciliator has made extensive discussions with the children and the petitioner. We also have interacted with the parties. Both the children have promised that they will not hereafter give room for any complaints either to the mother or to their teachers or neighbours. Petitioner submits that Master Jishnu may be sent with her and she will look after both children. We also find that the children are in good company with each other, caring and sharing for each other. In the above circumstances we permit the petitioner to take her W.P(Crl.)No.368 of 2008 -:2:- child Master Jishnu with her. It is brought to our notice that Master Jishnu was undergoing his studies in RSW Government L.P. School, Ettumanoor. His younger sister is studying in Town U.P.School, Koduvathanam, Ettumanoor. We feel that it is only proper that both children study in the same school. Therefore, we direct the Headmistress, RSW Government L.P.School, Ettumanoor to issue TC to the petitioner so as to enable her to admit Master Jishnu in Town U.P.School, Koduvathanam, Ettumanoor, without disturbing his academic prospects. We record our appreciation for the sincere efforts taken by Smt.Mareena Joseph. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE) (K.T.SANKARAN, JUDGE) ahg.
