The investigation in the matter had already concluded, and a charge sheet was filed on 3 April 2026. The petitioners, through counsel, did not contest this fact but expressed a desire to withdraw the petition, seeking liberty to approach the appropriate forum later if needed. The court, noting the petitioners' request, dismissed the writ petition as withdrawn while granting them the liberty to approach the appropriate forum at a later stage. No substantive merits of the petition were adjudicated.
