(ORAL) Case is taken up for hearing through video conferencing. This petition has been filed under Article 226 of the Constitution for issuance of a writ in the nature of Habeas Corpus directing respondents No. 1 to 3 to get dentenue-Neelam Rani, released from the illegal custody of respondent Nos. 4 to 7.

Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that she does not want to press the present petition any more and may be permitted to withdraw the same.

As per office report, no process fee has been filed, whereas notice of motion was issued on 21.12.2020.

Moreover, at this stage, learned State counsel has pointed out that the present petition has been preferred by the father and grand-father of detenue-Neelam Rani, who is stated to be illegally confined by the private respondents.

CRWP No. 10732 of 2020 -2Learned State counsel has further drawn the attention of this Court towards the order dated 21.12.2020 passed by a Co-ordiante Bench of this Court, whereby CRWP-10067-2020 filed by detenue-Neelam and her husband Arshdeep Singh has been dismissed and the custody of detenue Neealm has been handed over to Gandhi Vanita Ashram, Jalandhar. Since the custody of the alleged detenue in the present case, has been handed over to Gandhi Vanita Ashram, Jalandhar, the perception of illegal detention of the detenue does not survive. Keeping in view the above, the present petition has become infructuous and is disposed of as such.
