Shaffique, J.
The petitioner has approached this Court for a direction to the respondents 2 to 4 to provide adequate police protection to prevent interference or disturbances caused by respondents 6 to 10 in respect of construction of a boundary wall in the petitioner's property as per Ext.P1 permit.
2. The allegations in the writ petition would disclose that the petitioner is having a property having an extent of 10.23 Ares which is lying as reclaimed land. The petitioner has also certain other lands which are lying as wet land as well. The complaint is that the party respondents have threatened the petitioner and are obstructing the conversion of said land.
3. In so far as the party respondents were not engaged in any criminal act and no law and order situation has been created by the party respondents, we do not think that the request as prayed for can be granted. Presently the petitioner has claimed that respondents 6 to 10 may obstruct WP(C) No. 353 of 2014 -:2:- the filling up of the said land. In that view of the matter, it is a civil dispute and the petitioner can approach the Civil Court seeking appropriate injunction against the party respondents. However, it is made clear that if any criminal act is apprehended or committed in the process, the petitioner is at liberty to approach the police and in that event police has to conduct investigation into the same and do the needful. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. Manjula Chellur, Chief Justice. A.M. Shaffique, Judge. ttb/31/01 WP(C) No. 353 of 2014 -:3:-
