Holding

The petition is infractuous and is dismissed as unnecessary because the detention order has been revoked.

Summary

The petitioner, Jitendrakumar @ Jitu Chikki Jethanand Ramchandani, filed a special criminal application challenging his detention order. The respondent, Police Commissioner of Ahmedabad, was represented by the Public Prosecutor. The petitioner’s counsel argued that the detention order had been revoked by the authority, rendering the petition moot. The Court examined whether the revocation of the detention order made the writ petition infractuous. Finding that the order of detention was indeed revoked, the Court held that there was no longer any ground for relief. Consequently, the petition was dismissed as unnecessary.

Issues considered

  • Whether the writ petition remains maintainable after the revocation of the detention order?
