State of Uttarakhand. 2. late Sri Pitar Das, S/o Sri Dharma Das, R/o S – 310, Shivalik Nagar, Haridwar. ………Respondents. Sri Ashwin Vaish & Sri Vinod Pandey, learned counsel for the petitioners. Sri G.S. Sandhu, G.A. for respondent no. 1. Hon’ble V.K. Gupta, C.J. 1. Mr. Ashwin Vaish, learned counsel for the petitioners, after arguing for a while, seeks permission of this court to withdraw this petition with liberty to the petitioners to urge all points and raise issues and questions in the Trial Court in defence of the petitioners there. 2. Prayer allowed. 3. Petitioner is dismissed as withdrawn. 4. I do wish to observe that the dismissal of this writ petition shall not be construed as an expression of opinion by this court as far as the merits of the case are concerned. 5. It goes without saying that the learned Trial Court shall deal with the case on its own merits uninfluenced by the dismissal of this petition. 6. Mr. Ashwin Vaish, Advocate, submits that the petitioners belong to Meerut and New Delhi and when they appear before the learned Trial Court, their prayers for bail should be considered and disposed of on the day they appear. 7. I find force in this argument of the learned counsel for the petitioners, especially, looking to the fact that some of the petitioners are females. I accordingly, direct the learned Trial Court to ensure that the prayers of the petitioners for their being released on bail are considered and disposed of, the day they appear in the Trial Court. 8. Copy of this order be given to the learned counsel for the petitioners today itself. (V.K. Gupta, C.J.) Dated: February 29, 2008 Sksharma
