Yesterday, matter was on board and arguments were heard when initially learned Advocate for the petitioner was present and on his request matter was kept back for ten minutes to take instructions and inform the Court – whether he wants to withdraw the present writ petition in view of filing of the charge sheet.

The practice of an Advocate not appearing before the Court, after giving assurance to attend on behalf of the petitioner, is very unfortunate. However, without going into the said aspect, suffice it to say that now there is nothing in Ladda 2 appln-3618-10.doc the present petition so far as granting relief of quashing of the F.I.R. which is for the offences punishable under section 509 of I.P.C. and when charge sheet is already filed on 22nd January,2011. 2.

Inspite of such understanding given, none is present to assist the Court in putting an end to the present matter. 3. In the result, there is nothing to entertain in the present writ petition and same is accordingly dismissed. (A.R.JOSHI, J.)
