Ms. Debjani Ghosal ... for the UOI In re : IA no. CAN 1 of 2004 (Old CAN 329 of 2004) (application for restoration) Today when the matter is called on, none appears for the petitioner.

On 15.12.2003, when the writ petition was taken up for hearing none appeared for either of the parties. Hence, the writ petition was dismissed for default and the petitioner filed this present application for restoration on 14.01.2004.

We, accordingly, allow this application for restoration and the writ petition is restored to its original file and number and taken up for hearing.

Accordingly, IA no. CAN 1 of 2004 (CAN 329 of 2004) is disposed of.

In re : WPA 17506 of 2003

The respondent / Union of India is represented. In spite of repeated posting, there is no representation for the petitioner.

The matter relates to alleged detention of a person. Though the writ petition was filed in the year 2003, we do not propose to hold this matter any further, since it has been left without due prosecution by or on behalf of the petitioner. The writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed.
