At the outset, learned counsel for the appellant submits that the appellant has wrongly filed Appeal directly before this Court though there is a provision under Section 372 Cr.P.C (amended provision Section 413 of the BNSS), which specifically stipulates that an Appeal shall lie to the Court to which an Appeal ordinarily lies against the order of conviction of such Court, therefore, he seeks to withdraw this Appeal. 3. In view of the aforesaid submission of learned counsel for the appellant, this Appeal is dismissed as withdrawn. 4. Registry shall return the certified copy of the judgment and relevant documents to counsel for the appellant after retaining its photocopy. Sd/- (Deepak Kumar Tiwari) Judge Priyanka
