The aforesaid order had been passed nearly about a year back and the learned Counsel for respondents states that pursuant to the 2 aforesaid order the respondents were released on bail and presently the respondents have obtained regular bail from the Court as the charge- sheet in the aforesaid offence has already been filed by the Shahada Police Station. In that light of the matter, therefore, the challenge to the order granting anticipatory bail to the respondents does not survive and the application is rejected. ( P.V.HARDAS, J.) amj/criap4135.08
