Varni to the extent of modifying the orders passed in Crl.M.P.No.1 of 2008 imposed by the Judicial Magistrate of I Class, Bodhan to deposit the passport by the first Respondent. At the instance of the Petitioner who is the wife a crime has been registered against the Respondent herein who is the husband. As it is the apprehension of the Petitioner that the husband i.e. Respondent may leave the country, she filed the application requesting the court to seize the passport. Accordingly the passport was seized. Subsequently the husband i.e. Respondent herein who is a non resident Indian approached the court below and filed the said miscellaneous petition 2 of 2008 and the Court below was pleased to allow the said application and ordered return of passport. The same is questioned in this petition. Though this matter was listed on several occasions, this court has not suspended the said order. Heard both sides. Today when the matter is taken up for hearing, the learned counsel for the Respondent Mr. Krishna Rao represented that the Respondent herein left the country and is presently in U.S.A and not returning to this country. Hence, this court is of the view that no orders need be passed in this petition. However as and when the Respondent comes to India, the police authorities may seize the passport.
