Allahabad High Court

TAUFEEQ AHAMADversusSTATE OF U.P. AND ANR.

Decided

Holding

The revision is dismissed as withdrawn, with liberty granted to the petitioner to file an appeal before the appropriate court.

Summary

The revisionist filed a criminal revision (No. 1641 of 2012) seeking to withdraw the petition and obtain permission to file an appeal before the appropriate court. The revisionist's counsel submitted a withdrawal application requesting that the revision be dismissed as withdrawn. The court considered whether a revision petition can be withdrawn at the stage of filing and whether liberty can be granted to pursue an appeal. After reviewing the application, the court held that there is no impediment to withdrawing the revision and that the petitioner may be allowed to approach the concerned court by way of appeal. Consequently, the court dismissed the revision as withdrawn and granted liberty to file an appeal.
