This is a petition alleging police harassment. Government Pleader submitted that petitioner is not an accused in any case and therefore there is no question of police harassment. The allegation that police went to the petitioner's house was denied but however, we make it clear that if police visit the house of the petitioner without registering any case, that will be taken seriously and petitioner can move the Superintendent of Police or Judicial Magistrate. If any crime is registered, investigation can be only according to law. Recording the submission that police will not harass the petitioner, this writ petition is disposed of.
