PER COURT :
1. After hearing the learned Advocate for the Petitioner for some
time, when this Court has expressed its disinclination to entertain the
Petition, the learned Advocate for the Petitioner, on instructions, submits that
the Petitioner was not impleaded as an accused in the F.I.R. nor in the
Charge-sheet. In view thereof, she does not wish to press the Petition and
seeks leave to withdraw the same. Her statement is accepted. Leave, as
prayed for, is granted.
2. In view of the above, the Petition is dismissed as withdrawn.
