JUDGMENT
Shaffique, J.
Petitioners have approached this Court seeking police protection alleging that respondent Nos.3 to 7 are threatening. Though complaints were given to the police, no action has been taken in the matter.
2. Learned counsel for respondents 3 to 7 submits that they have not threatened the petitioners in any manner. Counter affidavit has already been filed controverting the allegations raised in the petition.
3. Learned Government Pleader on instructions would submit that there was financial transaction between the 3rd petitioner and respondents 4 to 7 which has resulted in a conflict between the parties. An interim order had already been passed by this Court on 17.10.2013 directing the 2nd respondent to ensure that the petitioners' life is not, in any way, threatened by respondents 3 to 7. Learned counsel for
WP(C) No. 17945 of 2013 -:2:- the petitioners submits that only on account of the interim order passed by this Court that there was no threat from respondents 3 to 7.
4. Learned Government Pleader further submits that during the pendency of the writ petition, no untoward incident has been reported.
5. Under such circumstance we do not think it necessary to pass any orders in this writ petition. We only observe that if any cause of action arises in future, it is always open for the petitioners to approach the police, who shall do the needful.
With the above observation, the Writ Petition is closed. Ashok Bhushan, Chief Justice.
A.M. Shaffique, Judge.
