JUDGMENT

Ashok Bhushan, C.J.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader.

2. This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner alleging police harassment. Learned Government Pleader after obtaining instructions submitted that a complaint has been received from 2nd respondent against the petitioner and in connection with the same, petitioner was called to the police station. After enquiry, police authorities came to know that a civil suit is pending between the parties as O.S. No.185/2015 and, as the dispute between the parties is of civil nature, police has already closed the complaint. In the above view of the matter, we are of the view that this writ petition need not be entertained as a petition against police harassment. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is closed. Ashok Bhushan, Chief Justice.

A.M. Shaffique, Judge.
