ORDER

The petitioner challenging the impugned notice filed this quash petition. 2.The case of the petitioner is that the petitioner is a Government school teacher, working at St.Arokiya Madha Government Aided School, Velankanni, Nagapattinam District. One P.Solaventhan, S/o.G.Padmanaban of Tiruvarur District lodged a complaint against the petitioner. The petitioner filed a petition in Crl.O.P.No.19305 of 2025 seeking not to harass. Though, this Court

dismissed the petition, finding that it is a civil dispute with regard to borrowal of money for construction of home and the petitioner laches in informing her employer about the loan, gave a general direction to the police not to interfere with money transaction of any of the parties. Thereafter, the petitioner filed an anticipatory bail petition before this Court in Crl.O.P.No.21940 of 2025 as crime number not known, but later it was dismissed as withdrawn.

3. The said Solaventhan, without bringing the case proceedings of the Court, sent a representation on 16.12.2025 stating that the petitioner has involved in a job racketing case but no action has been taken against her, filed a petition in W.P.Crl.No.41 of 2026, wherein, this Court directed the police viz. Superintendent of Police, Tiruvarur, Inspector of Police, District Crime Branch to cause enquiry on the petitioner and to complete the enquiry within a period of four (4) weeks. The petitioner has been issued with the impugned notice, without any notice was ordered to the petitioner and the petitioner was not heard in this matter. Hence, challenging the same, the petitioner preferred the present petition.

4.From the records, it is found that the impugned notice dated 05.02.2026 is for the appearance of the petitioner for enquiry. 5.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that in this case the

petitioner is involved in a job racketing case and the earlier proceedings referred by the petitioner is projected as though it was a loan for house building and civil dispute but it is not so. The enquiry revealed that the petitioner collected money for seeking employment abroad not only from the said Solaventhan but also from others. Hence, the petitioner's appearance for enquiry is very much required and notice was sent. Since the petitioner approached this Court, seeking for quashing of the impugned notice, no further enquiry has been conducted.

6.On the submissions, it is seen that the impugned notice dated 05.02.2026 is for the appearance of the petitioner, but the above Original Petition is filed on 17.02.2026, much after the notice date. 7.In view of the above, this petition is not maintainable. It is also made clear that the complaint against the petitioner is for job racketing. It is for the petitioner to appear before the respondent police, respond to the notice and to give her explanation.

8.In light of the above, this Criminal Original Petition stands dismissed. The Inspector of Police, District Crime Branch, Tiruvarur, is directed to issue fresh notice to the petitioner, since, it is subsequent to the order of this Court dated 12.01.2026 in W.P.Crl.No.41 of 2026. It is for the petitioner to appear
