Summary
Happy Kumar filed an anticipatory bail application before the Patna High Court in connection with a criminal case registered under PS. No. 18 of 2025. During the hearing, the petitioner, through counsel Mr. Sitesh Kashyap, sought the Court's permission to withdraw the anticipatory bail application. The State, represented by APP Mr. Parmanand Kumar, opposed the withdrawal. The Court considered the procedural propriety of allowing a petitioner to retract an anticipatory bail petition.
