In the present scenario, since applicant no. 1 has already been arrested, the counsel for the applicants does not want to press the instant application on behalf of applicant no. 1 and wants to press the same only on behalf of applicant nos. 2 and 3. 4. As orally prayed by learned counsel for the applicants, the instant application is treated to be filed only on behalf of respondent nos. 2 and 3. 5. After due deliberations at length, learned counsel for the applicants chose not to press the instant application on merits. However, he has urged for interim protection to applicant nos. 2 and 3 so that they may appear before the court below and participate in the court proceedings. It is submitted that applicant nos. 2 and 3 are ready and willing to appear before the court below to cooperate in the trial. They have never intended to ignore the court proceedings. As such, some protection may be granted. 6. Learned A.G.A. has no objection in case protection is granted to applicant nos. 2 and 3 to enable them to appear before the court below to participate in the court proceedings. 7. In this conspectus, as above, no useful purpose would be served to keep this matter pending, therefore, this Court deems it appropriate to finally dispose off the present application, without making any observation on the merits of the case as mentioned in the present application, with a direction that in case applicant nos. 2 and 3 appear/surrender and move bail application before the court below within a period of three weeks from today, same shall be considered and decided in accordance with law expeditiously, preferably within a period of three weeks thereafter. 8. For a period of six weeks or till the decision on the bail application, whichever is earlier, no coercive action shall be taken against applicant nos. 2 and 3 in aforesaid criminal case.
