Headnote:The case revolves around the denial of a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) to the petitioner involved in a criminal case. The court ordered the issuance of a customized PCC under specific conditions citing the case order (Ext.P2) as binding. The primary issue was the legal sufficiency for issuing the PCC based on ongoing criminal proceedings and the court's remedy was to compel issuance contingent on judicial oversight.

Table of Content
1. petitioner's request for pcc denial (Para 1)
2. condition for issuing customized pcc (Para 2)

JUDGMENT

The petitioner is aggrieved as the 4th respondent has not considered his request for a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) favourably.

2. The learned DSGI appearing for the 4th respondent would submit that the petitioner is involved in a criminal case and therefore, only a Customised PCC can be issued, and that too only on orders from this Court.

3. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned DSGI appearing for the 4th respondent and having perused Ext.P2 order of the Assistant Sessions Court, Kollam, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 4th respondent to issue a Customized PCC to the petitioner also mentioning the details of the case mentioned in Ext.P2 order. The needful shall be done within two weeks from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment.

The writ petition is disposed of as above.
