When the petition was listed on 06.10.2020, none appeared for the Petitioners. To enable the learned counsel appearing for the Petitioners to cause the appearance and argue the petition, the petition was posted for hearing on 27.10.2020 i.e. today. Even today, when the matter is called out, none appears for the Petitioners. Therefore, Criminal Writ Petition No. 1303 of 2014 stands dismissed for want of prosecution. 3.

So far, Criminal Application No. 528 of 2015 is concerned, Mr. H.S. Venegaonkar appearing for applicant is present, however, learned counsel appearing for respondents is not present.
