CVNR, J & JUD, J W.P.No.24377 of 2017 ORDER: (Per Hon'ble Sri Justice C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy) This writ petition is filed for issue of Habeas Corpus by directing respondents to produce the brother of the petitioner by name Akber (for short 'the alleged detenu'), S/o Saheb Patel before the Court and set him at liberty.

At the hearing, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home (TS) submitted that copies of the purported reports given to respondent Nos.2 to 4 show that they do not contain any seal showing the receipt of such reports by any of the above mentioned respondents.

On perusal of copies of these reports, we find merit in the submission of the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home (TS). Unless the petitioner files report before the police to enable the latter to set the law into motion, he is not entitled to avail the remedy of Habeas Corpus.

The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of by permitting the petitioner to give a report to respondent No.4. If such report is given, respondent No.4 shall take appropriate steps in accordance with law to trace the alleged detenu.
