Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:85187 Court No. - 74 Case :- WRIT - C No. - 3997 of 2025 Petitioner :- Rounak Ahirwar And Another Respondent :- State Of Uttar Pradesh And 5 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Sweksha Dubey Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Saurabh Srivastava,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for petitioners and learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for the State-respondents. 2. By way of the present writ petition, a direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents not to interfere in peaceful life of petitioners, has been sought. 3. Learned counsel for petitioners submits that after performing marriage, petitioner no. 1 was illegally detained by her family members. In writ of habeas corpus, both the petitioners are re- united and leading their peaceful life and still there is threat of life at the behest of respondent nos. 4 to 6 and as such concerned police authorities may be directed to extend protection to the petitioners. 4. Per contra, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel has vehemently opposed the prayer as made in the petition and rebutted the stand as taken up by learned counsel for the petitioners on the ground that once the protection has already been extended by the court itself under writ of habeas corpus, there is no cause of action survives for seeking same prayer in separate proceeding before this Court. 5. Considering the rival submission extended by learned counsel for the parties, one thing is crystal clear that under intervention of the court in proceeding of habeas corpus, both the petitioners are already leading their peaceful life but at the same time, if any urgency or emergency arises, a separate mobile number of concerned police station may be provided by Senior Superintendent of Police, Jhansi to the petitioners, so that they may contact immediately with the police authorities concerned who may respond within shortest span of time over the destination from where the call will be made by the petitioners. 6. The above arrangement shall be continued to next two months and thereafter Senior Superintendent of Police, Jhansi will be at liberty to either continue or to stop on the basis of review of the security which was extended in favour of the petitioners. 7. The writ petition stands disposed of accordingly. Order Date :- 20.5.2025 #Vik/- Digitally signed by :- VIKRAM GUPTA High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
