Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Ms.Jigyasa Tanwar, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. The petitioner has made an allegation against respondent No.5. On the basis of a complaint, proceedings are in progress against him. Respondent No.5 has been released on bail. He is stated to be working as Head Constable in Haryana Police. As per the petitioner, he has advanced threat to him and so the petitioner has approached this Court for grant of protection. Simply on the basis of bald averments made that a threat is advanced to the petitioner, this Court cannot issue directions to provide protection to the petitioner. A case has to be made out showing real and substantial threat to life before any directions for protection are issued. If respondent No.5 is advancing any threat as alleged, the petitioner can seek cancellation of his bail by pointing out this conduct of the respondent to the Court, which has granted him bail. It is not an appropriate case to issue direction for granting protection to the petitioner. Dismissed. December 06, 2011 ( RANJIT SINGH ) ramesh JUDGE
