Respondents ORDER: Respondents 2 and 4 are present in person and a memo was filed on behalf of the 3rd respondent stating that he is admitted as an inpatient in the hospital at Hindupur and he is on sick leave due to bronchitis and high fever. The appearance of the 3rd respondent is, therefore, dispensed with. Counter affidavits of respondents 2 to 4 have been filed and the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for respondents 2 to 4 are heard. Irrespective of the truth or otherwise of the claims of innocence of respondents 2 to 5, they tendered their unconditional apologies in their counter affidavits filed before this Court and the learned counsel for respondents 2 to 4 has assured that such violation of any Court order shall not take place at the instance of respondents 2 to 4 at any time hereafter. In the light of the apology not subjected to any conditions tendered by respondents 2 to 5, no further penal action need be taken and accordingly, the proceedings are closed. Learned counsel for the petitioners also expressed an apprehension, which the petitioners are entertaining, about the likelihood of danger to their physical safety from the hands of the police officials. But, the 2nd respondent submitted to the Court that there was absolutely no basis for such apprehension and hence, no further orders are necessary on that aspect. _____________________ G.
