2.The learned Government Advocate (crl.side) appearing for the first respondent states that the trial in this case has already commenced.

3.I am of the view that once the trial has commenced, the Criminal Original Petition has to necessarily suffer a dismissal. However, considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the personal appearance of the petitioners is dispensed with before the court below. Of course, they have to be represented by their counsel. The learned Trial Judge shall not insist the petitioners' personal appearance unless it is necessary and warranted.
