Holding

The Court allowed the withdrawal of the anticipatory bail application and disposed of the petition.

Summary

Ashishkumar Chandrakant Patel filed an anticipatory bail application (R/CR.MA/4678/2026) before the Gujarat High Court. The applicant's counsel, Mr. K. R. Chakwawala and Mr. R. M. Chakwawala, later sought the Court's permission to withdraw the application, stating it had become infructuous. The State of Gujarat, represented by Mr. M. A. Shah, opposed the withdrawal. Justice P. M. Raval considered whether the Court could permit the withdrawal of an anticipatory bail petition. The Court granted permission to withdraw and ordered the application disposed. Consequently, the anticipatory bail proceedings were terminated without a substantive decision on the merits.

Issues considered
