SRI.P.PARAMESWARAN NAIR,ASST.SOLICITOR THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 12/02/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ============== W.P.(C) NO.34152 OF 2008 (N) ==================== Dated this the 12th day of February, 2009 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a UAE citizen living at Calicut. Although her visa period expired long ago, she still lives in India and wants to go back. It is stated that once Ext.P3 quit notice was issued by the 2nd respondent and she had reached upto Sharjah Airport, but she was not allowed to go out of the Airport and the UAE authorities sent her back to India. Still, she wants to go back and it was therefore this writ petition was filed praying for directing the respondents to ensure that she gets an emergency passport/out pass from the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates. 2. However, the petitioner could not satisfy this Court that the respondents had any obligation to get her an emergency passport/out pass from the foreign embassy as prayed for by her. Now petitioner submits that she has contacted the UAE Embassy and she has been informed that if the 2nd respondent issues another quit notice similar to Ext.P3, the UAE Embassy will do the needful for her to travel back and join her family in UAE. 3. Admittedly, the petitioner lives in India without any authorisation and if that be so, she is liable to be send back. That can be WPC 34152/08 :2 : achieved only if the 2nd respondent initiates proceedings by issuing a quit notice similar to Ext.P3 issued way back in 5/4/2005. Therefore, I direct the 2nd respondent to issue a quit notice similar to Ext.P3. This shall be done, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 2 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner may produce a copy of this judgment before the 2nd respondent for compliance. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
