Admittedly, the prayer B of the petitioner has been granted and the Demat account of the petitioner admittedly stands defreezed. 3.

As regards prayer C is concerned, the same is regarding private respondents and hence the petition against private respondents shall not lie before this Court in writ jurisdiction. 5. As regards the mental, emotional and psychological harassment is concerned, the petitioner has already filed civil suit seeking compensation. 6. Accordingly, the petition has become infructuous and is disposed of. JASMEET SINGH, J MARCH 25, 2026/AS This is a digitally signed order.
