2. This writ petition has been filed by the petitioners alleging police harassment praying for a direction to respondents 2 and 3 not to harass the petitioner in connection with the civil dispute between the petitioners and respondents 4 to 6. Petitioner's case in the writ petition is that dispute pertaining to property in O.S. No.463/2002 was decided in favour of the petitioner, against which, A.S.

WPC. No.372/2015 deed for settlement.
