IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.285 of 2007 SHATRUDHAN SAHANI @ SATRUGHAN SAHANI Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 4 8.8.2008 In the instant writ application the petitioner prays for a direction to the respondents to release him from jail as he has completed the sentence passed in Sessions Trial No.168/88 disposed of on 28th September,1988 by the learned Sessions Judge, Vaishali at Hajipur. In course of hearing of this petition, it transpires that the petitioner is also being detained in connection with a case in which he was sentenced to undergo R.I. for 8 years by the City Court , Kolkata on 25.9.2001. On the last occasion on 10.7.2007 the learned counsel for the State submitted that process for transferring the petitioner to Kolkata was in progress and he will be transferred soon. The learned State counsel has filed a supplementary counter affidavit stating therein that the petitioner, Shatrudhan Sahni @ Shatrughan Sahni has already been transferred to Central Jail, Alipur, Kolkata on 26.7.2007 for serving out his rest sentence with regard to S.C. No.10050 of 1995/ S.T.No.1 of 1996, as he has completed the sentence inflicted by Court of Bihar. No one appears for the petitioner. The grievance of the petitioner seems to have been redressed as he has already been released from prison so far as S.Tr. No.168/88 is concerned in view of para 10 of counter affidavit and para 4 of supplementary counter affidavit. 2 This application is allowed to the extent stated above.
