Holding

Summary

The applicant, Mohammad Zaid @ Zedu Abdul Kadar Kureshi, filed a Special Criminal Application seeking relief after his order of detention was revoked. He subsequently moved the High Court of Gujarat for permission to withdraw the application. The learned counsel for the applicant, Mr. Muzaffahmed Kadri, argued that the revocation rendered the application unnecessary. The court considered whether it could grant such permission to withdraw a pending application. Finding no impediment, the bench granted the request, disposed of the application as withdrawn, and discharged the rule. The order was signed by Hon’ble Justices Gita Gopi and L.S. Pirzada.
