P.C.:- 1. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. 2. It appears that the petitioner was detained under the provisions of the Maharashtra Prevention of Dangerous Activities of Slumlords, Bootleggers, Drug-offenders and Dangerous Persons Act, 1981.

Thereafter, the petitioner has not challenged the order of detention. It appears that the petitioner has undergone the period of detention. Criminal prosecution is also AJN pending against the petitioner. The prayers made in the petition, in such circumstances, cannot be entertained by us. The petition is dismissed. [SMT.
