3. According to the petitioner, his son was missing from 23.04.2017, onwards. In this regard, the petitioner made a complaint before the second respondent police. On receipt of the said complaint, the second respondent police registered a case in Crime No.75 of 2017. Since there were no effective steps taken by the second respondent police to trace out the detenu, the petitioner has come up with the present Habeas Corpus Petition.
4. Today, when the Habeas Corpus Petition was taken up for hearing, the second respondent police produced the detenu. On enquiry, he has stated that on his own volition, he went to Thiruppur, where he was working in a private company. He has further stated that now he is willing to go along with his parents.
5. In view of the above, since the detenu is not in illegal custody, nothing survives for adjudication in the Habeas Corpus Petition. Hence, the Habeas Corpus Petition is closed.
