            were perused. Upon showing its disinclination to allow the application,
            the learned Advocate for the applicants, on instructions, seeks
            withdrawal of the application with liberty to file fresh application after
            filing of the charge-sheet.

            3.        Leave as prayed is granted. The Bail Application stands
            disposed of as withdrawn.

            4.        If the applicant prefers the fresh bail application alongwith
            charge-sheet before the trial court, then the trial court shall consider it
            on its own merits, in accordance with law.
