TO JUDGE VK R.BASANT & K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JJ. ------------------------------------------- WPC No.36756 of 2009 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 22nd March, 2011 JUDGMENT Basant, J. This petition for police protection filed as early as on 17.12.2009 remains without disposal even now. Service is complete. Respondents 2 to 7 are represented by a counsel. The matter came up for hearing last on 18.12.2009. Thereafter, there has been no posting. An innocuous interim order directing the police to ensure that law and order is maintained was passed on 18.12.2009. Today when the case is called, there is no representation for the petitioner. Conclusion is inescapable from the totality of the circumstances that the petitioner is not now interested in prosecuting this petition. 2. This Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed for non- prosecution. R.BASANT JUDGE K.SURENDRA MOHAN JUDGE css/
