There is no representation for the petitioner. We looked into the file and we find that the detenu was arrested on 8/2/10. The period of detention must have expired by 8/8/2010 and that obviously appears to be the reason why the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting this petition. 2. This writ petition is accordingly dismissed for non- prosecution and also for the reason that the same has become unnecessary and infructuous. Sd/- R. BASANT (Judge) Sd/- M.C.
