JUDGMENT Balakrishnan Nair, J. The petitioner has approached this Court, seeking protection to his life, on the allegation that respondents 6 to 11 are threatening and harassing him. According to him, they even went to the extent of holding him hostage in his business premises with the help of others. So, he moved the police by filing Exts.P5 and P6 representations. But, the police did not interfere. Therefore, this writ petition was filed. This Court on 23.7.2007 ordered to grant necessary protection to the life of the petitioner. 2. The notice has not, so far, been served on respondents 7 and 10. Having regard to the nature of the order we propose to pass in this writ petition, it is not necessary to serve notice on them. 3. The learned Government Pleader, upon instructions, submitted that the petitioner has registration with the Ministry of Labour for recruiting workmen to be sent abroad. The party respondents started causing trouble Wpc 21622/2007 2 because they did not get the expected employment on being sent abroad by the petitioner, it is submitted. 4. If there is any threat to the life of the petitioner, he may inform respondents 2 and 3. In that event they will look into the same and if his complaint is found to be genuine, take appropriate action in accordance with law, to redress his grievance. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, JUDGE. P.N.RAVINDRAN, JUDGE. Nm/
