THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.29873 OF 2011 ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed to declare the action of the respondents, in harassing and threatening the petitioners to disclose the whereabouts of their son, and the girl kidnapped by their son, as arbitrary and illegal. The petitioners are the parents of a boy named Rajasekhar who is studying II year Degree at Warangal. On 27.10.2011, the in-charge of Narayana College, Women Campus, Gollapudi, Vijayawada, lodged a complaint with the Station House Officer, Gollapudi I Town Police Station stating that one Cheti Kalyani, Daughter of Durgaiah of Kazipet, a 17 year old, was studying in II Year Intermediate in his college; on 26.10.2011 the girl Cheti Kalyani jumped over the wall; and when the management contacted her over telephone, she stated that she was going with her boy friend Rajasekhar in a car. Based on the complaint, an FIR was registered under the head “Girl Missing” on 27.10.2011, and the matter was taken up for investigation. During the course of investigation, the Investigating Officer had visited the house of the petitioners since it was their son who had taken away the girl. The respondents would, however, deny that they harassed, threatened and interfered with the life and liberty of the petitioners herein. As a minor girl is said to be missing, I see no reason to either interfere with the action of the respondents in investigating into the matter, or in their efforts to locate the missing girl. It is, however, made clear that, since the petitioners are not suspected of involvement in the crime, and it is only to ascertain the whereabouts of their son that they are being examined, the respondents shall not call them over to the police station except after issuing a notice in writing as stipulated under Section 41A of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. With these observations, the Writ Petition stands disposed of. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J November 21, 2011 MD THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.29873 OF 2011 November 21, 2011 MD
