J U D G M E N T PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE, J. The petitioner a 65 year old lady has filed this writ petition seeking police protection for her life at Nedumbasseri Airport, where she is expected to arrive on 26.9.2011, during her journey from the Airport to her destination at Kolani (near Thodupuzha) and during her stay in Kerala. According to her, she is presently put up in New York for the past 29 years and she is coming down to her home state now. The relationship between her and her 70 year old husband, 1st respondent herein, is in a strained condition. She apprehends danger to her life from the 1st respondent. Even though the averments in the writ petition are apparently appealing and Sri.C.K.Sreejith learned counsel for the petitioner made very persuasive submissions, we are not inclined to issue notice to the party 2 W.P.(C) No. 25442 of 2011 respondent. As directed by us, the learned Government Pleader has taken notice for respondents 2 to 4. We dispose of the writ petition at this stage itself issuing the following directions. The 2nd respondent, Sub Inspector of police, Thodupuzha, will look into Ext.P2 if he has received the same. He will hold all possible enquiries into the same and if it is revealed that there is truth in what has been stated by the petitioner in Ext.P2, he will take such action as is necessary for protecting the life and limbs of the petitioner.
