Legal Principle: Nobody shall make use of his property in such a way as to cause damage to others. Any such use constitutes private nuisance, a wrongful act under law of torts. Factual Situation: Vasan was living in his own house, adjacent to a cluster of houses, owned by Varadan. Varadan was leasing out these houses, whereas Vasan was living in his house. When Vasan was transferred to another place, he leased out his house to a person suffering from AIDS. Fearing the spread of AIDS, the tenants moved out of Varadan’s houses. Varadan requested Vasan to evict AIDS patient and he offered to fix a suitable tenant for Vasan’s house, if the AIDS patient is evicted. But Vasan refused by arguing that AIDS would not spread as feared by Varadan’s tenants. Varadan filed a suit against Vasan.
