Present:

Petitioners in person.

ARVIND SINGH SANGWAN J. (Oral) The petitioners have approached this Court seeking protection of their life and liberty on the premise that petitioner No.1 has performed marriage with petitioner No.2 against the wishes of her parents and other family members and the petitioners are apprehending threat to their life and liberty at their instance. Both the petitioners, who are present in the Court, have submitted that a representation dated 12.08.2018 was made to the Commissioner of Police, Ludhiana (Annexure P4), seeking necessary protection but no action has been taken so far in the matter. Heard.

Without examining the question of validity or otherwise of marriage of the petitioners, the present petition stands disposed of with a direction to the Commissioner of Police, Ludhiana to look into grievance of the petitioners expressed in the representation (Annexure P4) and take appropriate action, if any, warranted in the circumstances.
