2. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the property in question is a joint family property and already suits are pending between the parties in O.S.Nos.99, 101 and 127 of 2018. While so, the defacto complainant in the suit has given a complaint before the second respondent police as if the petitioner was grabbing the land. The learned counsel would submit that the dispute is Civil in nature and the second respondent should not interfere in this case.
3. From the available materials, it is seen that the parties are agitating their rights before Competent Civil Court. The second respondent will not have a role to play in a case of this nature. The second respondent is directed not to interfere with the dispute between the parties and the parties shall be relegated to the Civil Court, where the suits are pending.
4. The respondent police is directed not to harass the petitioner in the name of enquiry.
