FARMAN RAZA @ BABU AND ANOTHERversusSTATE OF U.P. AND 3 OTHERS

Decided

Holding

The writ petition is dismissed as withdrawn, with liberty to the petitioners to file a fresh petition.

Summary

The petitioners, Farman Raza @ Babu and another, filed a criminal miscellaneous writ petition challenging aspects of the investigation, during which an additional section was added. The Attorney General highlighted this addition, which the petitioners did not dispute. However, the petitioners expressed a desire to withdraw the writ petition and seek liberty to file a fresh petition with better particulars. Both the Attorney General and the respondent's counsel had no objection to this request. The Court, therefore, dismissed the writ petition as withdrawn, granting the petitioners liberty to file a fresh petition. A certified copy of the FIR was ordered to be returned to the petitioners' counsel.
