PIUS C.KURIAKOSE & C.K.ABDUL REHIM, JJ. ------------------------ W.P.(C).No. 20103 OF 2011 ------------------------ Dated this the 26th day of July, 2011 JUDGMENT Pius C.Kuriakose, J. This writ petition is filed by the petitioner, who is the grandfather of a minor child born to his son and the 6th respondent his daughter in law. He has approached this court complaining that respondents 4 and 5 relatives of 6th respondent are causing threats on his life and on the life of his wife who are presently in custody of the minor child. 2. On considering this writ petition for admission, we directed the learned Government Pleader to seek instructions immediately from the 3rd respondent - Sub Inspector of Police, Nooranadu as to the correctness of the allegations in the writ petition. Today, on the basis of the instructions received, the learned Government Pleader Sri. T.K.Vipin Das submitted before WPC.No.20103/2011 2 us that the main bone of contentions between the petitioner and the 6th respondent is the custody of the minor grand child of the petitioner. On the basis of the petition submitted by the 6th respondent, the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Mavelikara has handed over custody of the above child to its mother, the 6th respondent. According to the learned Government Pleader, now as the custody of the child is handed over, it is very unlikely that there will be any trouble from the part of respondents 4 and 5 or for that matter respondent No.6. 3. Sri.P.Sreekumar learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that even after the Magistrate has passed the order, Respondents 4 and 5 tried to trespass into the petitioner's house still in the early hours of the day. Threat continues, so submitted Mr.Sreekumar. 4. Having considered the rival submissions addressed at the Bar, we dispose of this writ petition directing the 3rd respondent to take immediate action if in future any complaint is received from the petitioner of any illegal act from the part of respondents 4 and 5 or from anybody else acting on their own or under the instructions from the 6th respondent and ensure that WPC.No.20103/2011 3 lives of the petitioner and his wife who are senior citizens is not endangerd.
