The petitioners, who are husband and wife, are seeking police protection for their lives from the threats and contumacious acts apprehended to be perpetrated by the respondents 1 and 2 and men acting under them. A reading of the pleadings will show that there is some monetary dispute between the petitioner and respondents 1 and 2. Even if the stand taken by respondents 1 and 2 in the above dispute is correct, then also they are not entitled to take law into their hands. 2. We are not inclined to go deeper into the correctness of the allegations in the writ petition. We find that the petitioners have submitted Ext.P4 representation before the 3rd respondent Commissioner of Police, Thiruvananthapuram city. We dispose of this writ petition at this stage itself directing the 3rd respondent to take up Ext.P4, to conduct an enquiry into the same and if WPC.No.29064/2011 2 the enquiry reveals that the allegation of the petitioners that there is subsisting threat to their lives and limbs from the respondents 1and 2 is true, then the 3rd respondent either directly or through officers subordinate to him will do the needful for ensuring that the lives and limbs of the petitioners are safe.
