SEBASTIAN VADAKKUMPADAN Vs. SHINE VARGHESE

Decided On May 22, 2018
Sebastian Vadakkumpadan Appellant
V/S
Shine Varghese Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Introduction:

(2.) When the police allegedly refused to register a crime, they approached this Court. They contend that only police could unravel the crime. A learned Single Judge allows the writ petition; the police act on the judicial directive and register a crime. In the appeal, the aggrieved office bearers question that direction.

(3.) Can the impugned judgment be sustained? Do the complainants have any efficacious alternative remedies available to them, for the public-law remedy is the last resort in private affairs?
