**** AMOL RATTAN SINGH, J. (ORAL) Learned counsel for the petitioners today very fairly submits that the petitioners would not be pressing these petitions presently, in NARESH KUMAR 2021.12.19 22:56 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document High Court, Chandigarh

CRR-504-2021 (O&M) and -2CRR-1308-2021 view of the fact they would address arguments before the trial Court at the time of framing of charges; and if on that basis they are discharged, obviously nothing further would remain.

If on the other hand, the petitioners, or any of them, are charged for the commission of any offence, they would avail their appropriate remedy as per law.

That being so, these petitions are dismissed as not have been pressed, but with the orders admitting the petitioners to interim bail made absolute, in view of the nature of the allegations made and keeping in view the legal issue as discussed in the orders dated 30.09.2021/01.10.2021.
