ORDER
Heard Ms.Y.Gomathi for the petitioner and Mr. S. Yogaraja Sekar, learned Government Advocate (Crl. Side), for respondents. I have gone through the entire records.
2. The claim of the petitioner is that he is a citizen of this Country and a resident of Kadambagachhi village, Barasat District, West Bengal. The cause of action for the writ petition is that the police had taken him to Bangladesh border and released him there. Thereafter, the Bangladesh authorities allowed him to enter Bangladesh. He states that he has returned to Chennai and the police are harassing him.
3. Mr. S. Yogaraja Sekar, learned Government Advocate (Crl.side), has produced records to show that the petitioner is a Bangladeshi. The identity card issued by the Government of Bangladesh has also been produced. The deportation order passed by the Government of India and the consequential proceedings initiated by the Tamil Nadu police to give effect to the said order make it clear that the petitioner's claim that he is an Indian and not a Bangladeshi is prima facie wrong.
WP Crl. No. 2774 of 2026
4. In addition, Mr. S. Yogaraja Sekar has also produced the order of the Division Bench of this Court in H.C.P.No.1541 of 2026 filed by the wife of the writ petitioner herein. H.C.P.No.1541 of 2026 was closed by an order dated 31.08.2026, recording that the petitioner had been deported in the manner known to law. When the police are acting under the directions of the Union of India, it cannot be said that they are harassing the petitioner. Hence, this writ petition stands dismissed.
