THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.5212 of 2011 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioner seeks a mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in pressurizing him to produce his brother, by name, Mahaboob Basha, who is an accused in Crime No.155 of 1998 registered on the file of Palamaneru Police Station of Chittoor District, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioner that he and his brother were separated from joint family about 30 years back and that on the ground that his brother is accused in Crime No.155 of 1998 and is evading arrest, the respondents are interfering with the rights of the petitioner by calling him to the Police Station. On written instructions, dated 07.03.2011, it is submitted by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for the respondents that Non-Bailable Warrants (NBWs) issued by the learned Judicial First Class Magistrate, Palamaneru, are pending against the brother of the petitioner and to execute such warrants, the respondents have enquired with the petitioner but they are not harassing him in any way. It is also submitted that no case whatsoever is registered on the file of Palamaneru Police Station against the petitioner. When the respondents have enquired with the petitioner about whereabouts of his brother, against whom NBWs are pending, it cannot be termed as interference. Recording the statement made by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for the respondents based on the written instructions, dated 07.03.2011, that no crime is registered against the petitioner, I dispose of the writ petition. However, it is made clear that the respondents shall take expeditious steps for arresting the petitioner’s brother, by name, Mahaboob Basha, against whom, the NBWs are pending. No order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 11th MARCH, 2011. kvni
