HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE P. SWAROOP REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.1497 OF 2009 JUDGMENT: The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the publication made in a newspaper warning prospective tenants amounts to contempt of Court. 2. A reading of the above publication shows that there are several allegations stating that there is construction in violation of the orders of this Court and in violation of the permission granted and that a criminal case is pending. There is no material on record to show that all these allegations are untrue. 3. Further, there is no dispute that at some stage, an order was granted by this Court in C.R.P. No.2799 of 2009 on 03-07-2009 for stopping construction, however the same was modified by this Court on 12-08-2009 vide CRP MP No.5022 of 2009 allowing construction of the premises with a direction to not to alienate the same. No doubt, the offending paper publication was made on 24-10-2009 after passing orders by this Court on 12-08-2009 permitting construction of the premises. The publication can be interpreted to say that construction between 03-07-2009 and 12-08-2009 was without permission. As already referred, there is allegation of construction being made for commercial purpose in violation of the permission granted by the Municipal authorities for residential purpose, as the learned counsel for the petitioner admits that initial permission was only for residential purpose, and as of now there is no material to show that any permission for commercial construction was granted later though the learned counsel contends that, as per his instructions, permission for commercial purpose was obtained later. 4. In the circumstances, it cannot be said that there is any contempt of Court, as such, the contempt case is liable to be dismissed. 5. Accordingly, the Contempt Case is dismissed. No order as to costs. ____________________ P. SWAROOP REDDY, J September 3, 2010. PV
