                    submits that during the pendency of the anticipatory bail

                    application, the petitioner has already been arrested and taken

                    into custody. In view of the same, he seeks permission to

                    withdraw the present anticipatory bail application as the same

                                 4. Accordingly, this application is dismissed as

                    withdrawn.
