Counsel for the Respondent, on instructions, states that prayer 'A' has been rendered infructuous as the second bail applications have been rejected by orders dated 31st October, 2025 passed by ASJ-03, North-West, Rohini Courts, Delhi. Accordingly, he has no objection to the said prayer being allowed.

Having regard to the facts narrated in the petitions and the submissions made by the counsel for the Respondents, prayer 'A' is allowed and the orders dated 12th September, 2025 and 19th September, 2025 passed by ASJ-II/Special Judge (NDPS), North-West, Rohini Courts, Delhi, in FIR No. 186/2025 registered at P.S.

Likewise, he states that prayer 'C' has also been rendered infructuous since the request for police custody has already been considered and granted by the MCOCA Court.
