Decided

Holding

The application under Section 482 CrPC is dismissed for want of prosecution.

Summary

The petitioners, Satyendra Singh and another, filed an application under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code seeking relief against the State of U.P. The High Court, after hearing counsel for the opposite party, found that the application was not pursued with sufficient prosecution. Consequently, the Court dismissed the application for want of prosecution. The interim order that had been granted earlier was vacated. No substantive merits of the petition were examined. The dismissal reflects the Court's adherence to procedural requirements for Section 482 applications.
