Here's a quick rundown: A property dispute in Hyderabad led to a court case that got dismissed because the issue no longer existed. Let's break it down!
Syed Moinuddin filed a request about a property dispute at Mukarram Jahi Market in Hyderabad. He claimed that some police officers were pressuring him to settle the property issue and drop a related court case.
The case, O.S.No. 3158 of 2015, was about property No. 20-4-1112/M/B. Syed Moinuddin wanted the court to stop the police from interfering, as there were already orders to keep things the same since December 2015.
“The action of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, the Assistant Commissioner of Police, and the Station House Officer… threatening to settle the issue pertaining to the property… is illegal, arbitrary and unconstitutional.”
The Assistant Government Lawyer, Mr. R. Laxmikanth Reddy, represented the state and police. He said that the police never interfered or threatened Syed Moinuddin. Plus, the property case was dismissed on June 15, 2022, because it wasn’t pursued.
Justice N. Tukaramji decided that since the original case was dismissed, there was no issue left to resolve. Therefore, the request was dismissed as "infructuous," meaning it was no longer relevant.
“Having regard to the submissions, and as the cause raised in this petition does not survive for adjudication, this petition is dismissed as infructuous.”
In the end, the court found no basis for the claims against the police, and since the property case was already closed, there was nothing more to decide. So, the request was dismissed, and any other pending matters were also closed.
