Holding

The Court held that it may grant permission to withdraw an anticipatory bail application, and therefore allowed the withdrawal.

Summary

The petitioners, Vijaykumar Shankarrao Shelke and another, filed an anticipatory bail application before the High Court of Gujarat. During the hearing, the applicant's counsel, Mr. Hriday Buch, sought the Court's permission to withdraw the application. The respondent, the State of Gujarat, was represented by Mr. Rohan Raval, while the original complainant's counsel was Mr. P. P. Majmudar. Justice Sanjeev J. Thaker considered whether the Court could allow the withdrawal of an anticipatory bail petition. Finding no impediment, the Court granted the request to withdraw. Consequently, the anticipatory bail application was disposed of as withdrawn.
