Learned counsel for the petitioners states that he be allowed to withdraw the present petition with liberty to the petitioners to raise all their pleas before the trial court at an appropriate stage.

In view of the statement made by learned counsel for the petitioners and the facts and circumstances of the case, this petition is dismissed as withdrawn with liberty to the petitioners to raise all their pleas before the trial court at an appropriate stage. However, the trial court may exempt the personal appearance of the petitioners on such CRM No. M-17527 of 2008 2 terms and conditions as it deems necessary. The trial court may allow the petitioners to appear through their counsel except on the dates when their presence before the trial court is absolutely necessary.
