High Court of Gujarat

JITENDRA @ JITU @ JAY AMBE S/O ARJUNBHAI RAVALversusSTATE OF GUJARAT

Disposal: 40-WITHDRAWN @ FH
Bench: HASMUKH D SUTHAR

Holding

The Court granted permission to withdraw the pending bail applications and disposed of them as withdrawn, reserving liberty to file fresh applications.

Summary

The petitioners filed regular bail applications before the charge-sheet was filed. After the charge-sheet was led, they sought the Court's permission to withdraw those applications and requested liberty to file fresh applications before the Sessions Court. The learned counsel for the petitioners argued that the pending applications were no longer necessary. The Court considered whether it could grant permission to withdraw the applications and allow the petitioners to approach the lower court later. It granted the permission, disposed of the applications as withdrawn, and expressly stated that it would not examine the merits of the case. The order also directed that a copy be placed in each of the applications.
