CORAM:- A.M.KHANWILKAR AND A.R.JOSHI, JJ. DATED:- 9th February, 2011. P.C. 1. During the pendency of this writ petition, it is common ground that the F.I.R. has been registered. In the light of that development the Counsel for the petitioner submits that he is not interested in pursuing the petition for any other relief and will be content if the F.I.R as registered is taken to its logical end. 2. In this petition four intervention applications have been filed. Counsel for the respective applicants submit that on account of pendency of this petition, the police officers were advised to straightway register the F.I.R. According to the concerned Interventionists, allegations made in the F.I.R. against them are false and frivolous. This, argument cannot be taken forward by way of intervention applications. The Interventionists, if so advised, are free to resort to appropriate remedy. That will be considered on its own merits in accordance with law. 3. For the time being, we would only accede to the request of the petitioner to withdraw this petition. Accordingly, petition is allowed to be withdrawn. 4 wp-3444-10 4. At this stage, counsel for the Interventionists submit that even copy of the F.I.R. has not been made available to them. It will be open to the Interventionists to make that request to the concerned Court who would pass appropriate directions in accordance with law. 5. Accordingly, petition as well as Intervention Applications are disposed of. (A.R.JOSHI, J.) (A.M.KHANWILKAR, J.)
