JUDGMENT
Shaffique, J Petitioner has approached this Court seeking police protection. It is inter alia contended that the petitioner had entered into an agreement for exchange of certain properties with respondents 4 and 5. Both parties were put in possession of the respective properties as well. While so, respondents 4 and 5 and their men had attacked the petitioner, her son and daughter-in-law on 23.10.2015 and 24.10.2015 and caused severe hurt to petitioner's daughter-in-law and her son. Though complaints were given to the police no action was taken by them. The petitioner in the meanwhile apprehends that there will be further attacks by party respondents and hence the writ petition has been filed seeking police protection.
2. Learned Government Pleader on instructions submits that based on the complaint given by the petitioner, two crimes have been registered against respondents 4 and 5 and the matter is under investigation. Police is keeping constant vigil on the activities of respondents 4 and 5 and sufficient police patrolling has been made available and thereafter no untoward
W.P(C).32543/15 incident has been reported.
3. Having regard to the aforesaid factual and situation, we do not think that any order as prayed for is required to be issued. We only observe that police shall keep a constant vigil on the activities of respondents 4 and 5 and ensure that no untoward incident happens in the area where the petitioner resides.
With the above observation the writ petition is closed. Sd/- ASHOK BHUSHAN CHIEF JUSTICE Sd/- A.M.SHAFFIQUE, JUDGE sou.
