OBSERVING that the Police Standing Order prohibits the police from conducting any investigation in matters which are civil in nature, the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court has directed the Director General of Police (DGP) to initiate an inquiry and take action against the police officials concerned if they have acted in favour of one of the parties in a civil dispute in Tirunelveli district.

The direction was passed by Justice B Pugalendhi while hearing a petition filed by M Rajesh Kumar from North Valliyur village seeking a direction to the Tirunelveli police not to interfere in the civil dispute between him and S Palavesamuthu.

In the petition Rajesh Kumar stated that the civil suit is pending between him and Palavesamuthu and the police harassed him under the guise of inquiry.
