The learned counsel for the petitioner, at the outset, would submit that the prayer in this Writ Petition is not happily worded. The petitioner, having constructed a house, is prevented by the respondent Police from attending the house-warming ceremony. The petitioner, therefore, intended to seek only a direction from this Court restraining the respondent Police from preventing him from attending the said function. 3. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor would submit that the petitioner had only sought Police protection for attending the function, therefore, the respondent Police rightly rejected the said request; and that they never intended to prevent the petitioner from attending his family function. 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.Crl.(MD)No.1216 of 2025 4.
