Serial No. 17 Suppl. cause list IN THE HIGH COURT OF JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT SRINAGAR WP(C) 2230/2023 SHAKEELA BANO AND ANR. …Appellant/Petitioner(s) Through: None Vs. DIRECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE AND ORS …Respondent (s) Through: Mr. Mohsin Qadri, Sr. AAG with Ms. Maha Majeed, Assisting Counsel CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE SANJEEV KUMAR, JUDGE ORDER 19.12.2025 1. On the last two consecutive dates of hearing, there has been no representation on behalf of the petitioners. Steps for service of respondents have also not been taken by the petitioners, although the notice in the matter was issued on 1st September, 2025. 2. Having regard to the controversy involved and the conduct exhibited by the petitioners in pursuing this petition, I am of the view that the petitioners have lost interest to pursue this petition. 3. This is a matter where the petitioners, who claim to have married out of their free will and volition, have approached this Court for seeking protection of their life and liberty form the respondents. 4. It seems that after having married, they are peacefully staying together and have, therefore, decided not to pursue this matter. 5. This petition is, accordingly, dismissed for non-prosecution. (SANJEEV KUMAR) JUDGE SRINAGAR: 19.12.2025 “Shahid Manzoor”
