Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was falsely implicated in four cases in 2003 and 2004 and subsequently, he was acquitted by the competent Court. However, the third respondent is insisting the petitioner to come to the police station everyday. He further submits that though the acquittal of the petitioner is informed to the third respondent on number of occasions, the third respondent is continuing the rowdy sheet against the petitioner is illegal and arbitrary, and as such, learned counsel prays this Court to direct the respondents 2 to 4 to close the rowdy sheet against the petitioner.

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the petitioner is directed to make a representation to the respondents 2 to 4 stating that he is not involved in any other crimes apart from the crimes mentioned above and on filing of such application, the respondents 2 to 4 are directed to consider the representation and pass appropriate orders. Further, the respondents 2 to 4 are directed not to compel the petitioner to attend before the Police Station. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any shall also stand disposed of. _____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 25.11.
