O R D E R

This Criminal Original Petition is filed under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. seeking for a direction to the second respondent Police to complete the investigation in Crime No.305 of 2020 and file charge sheet report.

3. When the matter was taken up for hearing, learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) submits that the respondent police have completed the investigation in Crime No.305 of 2022 and charge sheet is also filed before the concerned Court.

3. Since the very purpose for filing this petition had already been defeated on account of filing of the charge sheet, cause does not survive for the petitioner to continue this petition. Therefore, the petition stands dismissed as infructuous. However, the petitioner is at liberty to challenge the charge sheet in case, if he is advised so.
