Disposal
Disposed off/Decided on merits

Holding

The application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. is dismissed for want of prosecution.

Summary

The applicant filed an application under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code seeking relief, but failed to prosecute the application. No counsel appeared for the applicant or the second opposite party, though the State’s Additional Government Advocate was present. The High Court, noting the lack of prosecution, dismissed the application and vacated any interim order that had been granted. The court directed that the order be communicated to the trial court immediately. The matter was consigned to the records.

Issues considered

  • Whether the application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. should be entertained in the absence of prosecution by the applicant.
  • Whether the interim order, if any, should remain in force.
