O R D E R

This Criminal Original Petition is filed to direct the first and second respondents to provide police protection to the petitioner to run the Juice shop at No.507/295, Periyar High Road, Aminjikarai, Chennai peacefully without any interruption from the 3rd Respondent.

2. The case of the petitioner is that she is a tenant under the 3rd respondent, the third respondent earlier filed rent proceedings in R.C.O.P. No.186 of 2017 which was dismissed, thereafter the third respondent not preferred any Appeal. This being the case on 24.12.2021 the third respondent along with

goondas, broke open the petitioner's shop damaged articles, hence a complaint was lodged by the petitioner's husband on 25.12.2021, for which C.S.R.No.707/2021 assigned. Further, on coming to know about the lodging of the complaint, the third respondent gave counter complaint and C.S.R.No. 708/2021 was assigned on the same date. It is further stated that when the petitioner's husband had lodged the complaint, the third respondent again along with goondas forcibly dragged the petitioner out of the shop, dumped some stones in the shop. Since, no action taken by the second respondent, the petitioner was constrained to lodge a complaint on 27.12.2021 before the first respondent police. The petitioner further states that since the third respondent could not succeed in civil Court.

with the connivance of the second respondent and goondas forcibly evicted the petitioner. It is further stated that though the petitioner produced the copy of the RCOP, the respondent police have failed to take action on the complaint lodged by the petitioner, third respondent being a lady is creating nuisance and not permitting the petitioner to carry on her business and she is unnecessarily harassed and threatened.

3. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that there are two complaints one by the petitioner and the other by the third respondent pending before the respondent police,on enquiry and after verification of documents, if cognizable offence made out FIR would be registered immediately and action will be taken.
