ii) Issue any other order or direction under the facts and circumstances of the present case, to grant such other relief as this Hon'ble Court would deem fit to be granted, in the interest of justice and equity. 2.
2.

It is pertinent to mention here that the matter arises out of a suit and the orders passed in the suit cannot be stated to be in violation of the fundamental rights. 4. In any view of the order against attachment of property, a remedy is available under Order XXI Rule 58 of Code of Civil Procedure, 19081, which can be availed of by the petitioners, if the petitioners are so advised. The warrant for arrest too needs no interference in as much as the Court is proceeding with execution of the decree and it had not been
