It is not necessary to be detained any further by facts as Mr.R.Muniyapparaj, learned State Additional Public Prosecutor who accepts notice for the lone respondent submits that the request in the petitioner's aforementioned representation has since been acceded to. Learned State Additional Public Prosecutor has placed before us proceedings of the lone respondent dated 23.03.2023 bearing reference in Letter No.631/Tha.Ku.1/2023 and a scanned reproduction of the same is as follows:
