ANTONY DOMINIC , J.
The appellant filed O.P.No.26056/99 seeking compensation of ₹25 lakhs with interest thereon for the death of his son, that occurred on 17th October, 1995. According to the appellant but for the negligence of the respondents, his son would not have been murdered.
2. By his judgment dated 20.3.2009, a learned Single Judge of this Court dismissed the Writ Petition. It is aggrieved by the said judgment, this appeal is filed.
3. Having considered the case of the appellant, we are inclined to agree with the learned Single Judge that if at all the appellant has any claim for damages, unless he is able to establish the same by adequate evidence, the respondents cannot be made liable for the same. Such an adjudicatory process is not possible in a proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
We, therefore, do not find any good reason to interfere with W.A.No.44/11 -2-
the judgment of the learned Single Judge. The appeal is therefore dismissed.
