THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU W.P. No. 16426 of 2008 O R D E R: When the writ petition is taken up, it is submitted by the learned counsel appearing for the parties that the matter is squarely covered by the order passed by this Court in W.P. No. 19903 of 2003 dated 25.9.2003, which was disposed of relying on the judgment rendered in W.A. No.1167 of 2002 dated 29.7.2002 in similar circumstances. The relevant portion of the said judgment in W.A. No.1167 of 2002 reads as under: “The police authorities cannot obstruct the writ petitioner-Club from conducting card room where the members and guest of the writ petitioner’s cultural center are allowed to play the game of rummy with stakes/syndicate (thirteen card game). At the same time, we make it clear that the police are always at liberty to enter the premises and check as to whether the cultural center of the Club is conducting card room where the members and guests of petitioner’s cultural center are playing the game of rummy with stakes/syndicate (thirteen card game), for the purpose of verification. If they receive any intimation, police may enter the Club and verify the same and proceed further if the members and guests of writ petitioner’s cultural center play other than the game of rummy with stakes/syndicate (thirteen card game). The police authorities are also at liberty to proceed with the cases, which are already registered”. Following the above judgment of the Division Bench, this writ petition is disposed of in terms of the directions given in the judgment in W.A. No. 1167 of 2002 dated 29.7.2002 and the order passed in W.P. No. 19903 of 2003 dated 25.9.2003. However, it is made clear that the respondents are at liberty to take appropriate action against the members of the petitioner- Cultural Organisation if they promote any illegal activity at their premises. No order as to costs. JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU. Date: 13-9-2010. MVB.
