THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No : 27557 of 2010 O R D E R: This Writ Petition is filed seeking a mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in harassing the petitioner and his family members as illegal and arbitrary and violation of the rights guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India. It is the grievance of the petitioner that though himself or any of his family members has not involved in any offences, the respondent police are interfering with their life and liberty. When the matter was listed on earlier occasions, it was adjourned to enable the learned Government Pleader for Home to get instructions. Today, it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that one Sri Sree Ramulu, the 4th respondent herein has approached L.B. Nagar Police Station on 30.10.2010 and lodged a complaint stating that his daughter, by name Ms. K. Sowjanya, aged about 16 years, studying Intermediate course in Shivani Junior College, Kothapet, was kidnapped by one Sri Andugula Mahesh. It is stated that based on the said complaint, a case was registered in Crime No. 1331 of 2010 under Section 366-A IPC on the file of L.B. Nagar Police Station and the investigation was taken up. It is further submitted that during the pendency of this Writ Petition, the daughter of the complainant and Sri Andugula Mahesh, against whom complaint was lodged, were traced and a case was registered under Section 366-A I.P.C. and the accused was arrested and remanded to judicial custody. Sofar as the petitioner is concerned, it is stated that as the complainant stated that his daughter was kidnapped with the cooperation of the petitioner, he was interrogated to know the whereabouts of the kidnapped girl. It is further categorically stated that neither the petitioner nor his family members are required in the said crime registered under Section 366-A I.P.C. and that the respondents are not interfering with their life and liberty. Inasmuch as it is stated that the kidnapped girl is traced and the accused was already arrested and sent to judicial custody and as it is further submitted that the petitioner is not required in connection with the aforesaid crime, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition recording the statement of the learned Government Pleader that the petitioner and his family members are not required in connection with Crime No. 1331 of 2010 on the file of P.S. L.B. Nagar. It is needless to observe that there should not be any interference with the life and liberty of the petitioner and his family members, as there is no case registered against them. Subject to the above, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. ----------------------------- (R. SUBHASH REDDY, J) 6th December 2010 ksld 1. ..... REGISTRAR 2. // TRUE COPY // 3.
