S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.1000/2004 Dhanraj Vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors. Date : 17.03.2008 PRESENT HON'BLE DR. JUSTICE VINEET KOTHARI None present. --------- None appears for the petitioner. After 2004, the counsel for the petitioner has not appeared in this matter though the matter was listed in Court several times. On 12.7.2006, the Court issued notice to the petitioner for making appropriate arrange for his representation. On 28.5.2007 also nobody appeared for the petitioner and again on 17.3.2008 none appeared in the matter. Today also no counsel is appearing, therefore, prima facie, it appears that the petitioner or his counsel is not interested in pursuing this writ petition. The matter pertains to seizure of some articles of video parlor for which a prayer for release has been made in this writ petition. Prima facie such relief cannot be granted by exercise of writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Appropriate application deserves to be filed in the Court dealing with such matters having jurisdiction in the criminal side. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed as not maintainable. [ DR.
