W.P.(C)NO. 19542 OF 2008
============================
DATED THIS THE 8TH DAY OF JULY 2008
JUDGMENT
Balakrishnan Nair,J.
The petitioner is the President of a Charitable Society registered
under the provisions of the Travancore Cochin Literary Scientific and
Charitable Societies Registration Act. The 2nd respondent is the
Secretary of that society. The said respondent expended some
amount for the society for running its day to day business. It was
received by the Treasurer under proper voucher. After working for
sometime, the petitioner submits, the 2nd respondent was absent from
the society and caused to issue Ext.P4 notice claiming an amount of
Rs. 2,46,000/-. It appears she has moved the police also and
thereafter the first respondent, Circle Inspector of Police, is
threatening and harassing the petitioner. In the above background,
this writ petition is filed seeking appropriate directions commanding
the first respondent not to harass the petitioner for her failure to
pay a sum of Rs.2,46,000/- to the 2nd respondent.
WPC. 19542/2008 -2-
2. The learned Government Pleader, upon instructions, submitted
that based on the complaint filed by the 2nd respondent, a crime has
been registered against the petitioner under Section 420 of the Indian
Penal Code and the police is investigating the crime in accordance
with law. This submission is recorded. If the petitioner is aggrieved
by the commission or omission of the police, she may work out her
remedies available under the Codes of Criminal Procedure and Civil
Procedure. The writ petition is disposed of as above.
