HYDERABAD: The Hyderabad High Court on Thursday cautioned that it would not tolerate attacks on the persons who had moved court for public causes.
A division bench comprising Acting Chief Justice Ramesh Ranganathan and Justice K. Vijaya Lakshmi, while dealing with a petition by Lakshmi Nivas Agarwal of the city, seeking the removal of encroachments in Siddiamber Bazaar, cautioned the people not to take the law into their hands.
