The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the alleged detenu is not under detention any more and that he has already been released by the police. In these circumstances, the learned counsel submits that no further directions are necessary in the matter. This petition is, in these circumstances, dismissed. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the option of the petitioner and the alleged detenue to take appropriate further steps against the persons responsible for the alleged illegal detention of the detenu may be left open. Needless to say, the dismissal of this writ petition on the ground that it is not pressed now, will not in any way fetter the options available to the petitioner and/or the alleged detenu to take appropriate action against the persons allegedly responsible for the alleged illegal detention.
