                                JUDGMENT

Koshy, Ag.C.J.

This is a petition alleging police harassment. The fourth

respondent filed a counter affidavit stating that amounts are due from

the petitioner in business transactions. Learned Government Pleader,

on instructions, submitted that when a complaint was received from

the fourth respondent, both parties were called to the police station

and directed that they have to settle the civil matters in civil court.

Recording the submission that police will not harass the petitioner,

this writ petition is disposed of. Even if a crime is registered, that

should be investigated only according to law.
