DATE : 31.08.2026 P.C. : 1] Mr.U.A.Sayyed, learned counsel holding for Mr.K.N.Shermale, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that since the trial of the offence is going on, nothing survives in this petition. However, he further added that the trial Court may add charge under the provisions of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes [Prevention of Atrocities] Act, 1989. 2] However, it is made clear that if the evidence to that effect is placed on record, then the trial Court can take 2026:BHC-AUG:40044-DB 2116.19WP 2 cognizance of it and add the charge. It appears that nothing survives in this Petition and the same stands disposed of. [VAISHALI PATIL-JADHAV] [SANDIPKUMAR C.MORE] JUDGE JUDGE DDC
