During the hearing on 16-03-2026, counsel for the petitioners informed the court that the parties had amicably settled the dispute outside the court and sought permission to withdraw the application. The court granted the request, allowing the petition to be withdrawn. Consequently, the application was dismissed as withdrawn, with the court expressly stating that it did not pass any opinion on the merits of the underlying dispute.
