State of Haryana and others .....................Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr.Justice Jaswant Singh Present: Mr.Devinder Singh,Advocate for the petitioner. Jaswant Singh.J.(Oral) Prayer under Section 482 Cr.PC is for directing respondent no.4 (SSP Barnala,Punjab) for protecting the life and liberty of the petitioner at the hands of respondents 2 and 3 (SP Sirsa and SHO PS Dabbwali,District Sirsa). It is admitted that Surjit Singh, elder brother of the petitioner is involved in criminal activities and the police officials i.e. respondents 2 and 3 are looking for him. Prayer in this petition is for directing the said respondents-2 and 3 not to harass the petitioner and his family as they are asking about the whereabouts of said Surjit Singh. In view of the aforesaid facts, in my opinion, no case for interference is made out. In case the elder brother of the petitioner is wanted in some criminal case, the police is within its right to investigate the matter and ask the petitioner/his family to disclose the whereabouts of said Surjit Singh. Accordingly, no case for interference is made out. Dismissed. 13.8.2010 (Jaswant Singh) joshi Judge
