This is a petition for police protection. It is the case of the petitioner that he purchased a Maruti Zen car under hire purchase scheme financed by ICICI bank. He did not pay the monthly instalments and ICICI bank is trying to seize the vehicle. If the petitioner has got instalment facility, it is for the petitioner to pay the instalments correctly. No police protection can be granted against repossessing the vehicle as per the agreement. However, police is directed to see that no goondas are engaged by the financial institution. With that direction, the writ petition is dismissed. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE tks
