Shaffique, J.
The petitioner has approached this Court seeking police protection alleging that the private respondents are creating obstruction and other acts of violence against the petitioner, on account of which, the petitioner is unable to reside in the house owned by her.
2.
The petitioner has also produced Ext.P6 plaint in O.S.No.102 of 2015 filed by Thusharam Residents Association against the petitioner seeking for a permanent prohibitory injunction restraining the defendant, ie; the petitioner herein and her men from causing any nuisance in the plaint schedule property, which is the apartment complex or from causing any discomfort to the residents of "Thusharam Flats". 3.
Apparently, there is dispute between the petitioner and other apartment owners in regard to the manner in which the petitioner is behaving. However, the petitioner contends
-: 2 :- that an attempt is being made by other apartment owners, namely; the private respondents, preventing her from entering into her apartment. Though complaints were given to the police, no action has been taken in the matter and therefore, she has approached this Court.
4.
A counter affidavit has been filed by 7th respondent for himself and on behalf of respondent Nos.5, 6, 8, 11, 12, 14 and 15 inter alia stating that an interim injunction had been granted in the suit restraining the petitioner from creating any nuisance or committing any acts of waste in the plaint schedule property or from causing any discomfort to the residents of the apartment complex. It is stated that despite the existence of the interim order against the petitioner, she has approached this Court making false allegations against the private respondents. It is further stated that the private respondents are not causing any obstruction to the petitioner residing in her apartment. But the petitioner is causing substantial nuisance to other residents. She is not even paying the common amenity charges or other charges imposed by the Association.
-: 3 :- 5.
Learned State Attorney on instructions would submit that the petitioner was filed several complaints against the private respondents, but the report of the police indicates that the petitioner was creating some nuisance as alleged by the private respondents.
6.
Having regard to the aforesaid submission, we do not think it necessary to enter into the merits of the allegations or the counter allegations regarding the factual statements in the suit filed by the apartment owners' Association. The parties shall have to approach the civil court for appropriate reliefs and this judgment shall not be treated as affecting the rights of the parties in any way. 7.
The only complaint of the petitioner is that she apprehends that the private respondents may prevent her from occupying her apartment. It is submitted by the private respondents that they have no intention to create any such obstruction.
In the result, this writ petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to file a complaint to the police, if there is any such obstruction from the side of the private
-: 4 :- respondents or from any other person, in which event, the police shall look into the matter and do the needful. Sd/- ASHOK BHUSHAN CHIEF JUSTICE Sd/- A.M. SHAFFIQUE JUDGE Jvt
