Summary
In a criminal miscellaneous proceeding (No.11759 of 2024) arising from a 2019 complaint, petitioners Sanjay Singh and Anirudh Singh filed an application before the Patna High Court. The petitioners later sought to withdraw the application, contending that the lapse of time had rendered it infructuous. The learned counsel for the petitioners prayed for the withdrawal, and the State’s counsel was present. Justice Praveen Kumar allowed the petitioners’ prayer and ordered the application to be dismissed as withdrawn. Consequently, the court dismissed the application without further adjudication on the merits.
