Sr. No. 33 HIGH COURT OF JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT JAMMU SWP No. 2976/2014 Shaheen Akhter …. Petitioner/Appellant(s) Through:- None V/s State of J&K & Ors. …..Respondent(s) Through:- Ms. Saliqa Sheikh, Advocate vice Mr. Raman Sharma, AAG CORAM : HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD CHATTERJI KOUL, JUDGE ORDER 19.09.2025 This petition was filed as far back as in 2014. It was thereafter listed on 16.11.2015 and subsequently on 09.09.2025. During the intervening period, no steps were taken by the petitioner to have the matter listed. Had the petitioner been genuinely interested in pursuing the matter, appropriate steps could have been taken between November 2014 and September 2025. The continued absence of the petitioner and lack of diligence clearly indicate that the petitioner has lost interest in prosecuting the petition. In view of the above, the instant writ petition is dismissed for non prosecution. Interim direction, if any , shall stand closed. (VINOD CHATTERJI KOUL) Judge JAMMU Amit 19.09.2025 2
