Mr. M.S.P.Kamaraju, learned counsel for the petitioner, submitted that his client does not have any information about the alleged arrest and judicial remand of the detenu.

Having regard to the above-mentioned statement of the learned Assistant Government Pleader, we have no reason to disbelieve the same. Inasmuch as the alleged detenu is stated to have been remanded to judicial custody on being arrested and produced in connection with the aforementioned case, the cause in this writ petition does not survive for adjudication.

The writ petition is, accordingly, closed with liberty to the petitioner to avail appropriate legal remedy for securing the release of the alleged detenu.
