NATARAJ - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:41281 RP No. 216 of 2025 ORAL ORDER The petitioners have sought for review of the interlocutory order dated 07.04.2025 passed by this Court in W.P.No.26494/2018. 2. A perusal of the order dated 07.04.2025 discloses that this Court had permitted the petitioners in W.P. No.26494/2018 to lodge a complaint against respondent Nos.1 and 2 before the jurisdictional police regarding the non-return of their original testimonials. The Court had also directed the police to take appropriate measures for summoning the concerned officials of respondent No.1–bank and to take steps to search and seize the documents which the petitioners therein had submitted to the bank at the time of their provisional selection. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the bank has co-operated with the police but the documents are not available in the office of the petitioners. He further submits that the jurisdictional police are yet to submit their report and, therefore, prays that the order dated 07.04.2025 - 6 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:41281 RP No. 216 of 2025 should not come in the way of deciding the present writ petition on merits. 4. It the petitioners in W.P.No.26494/2018 have lodged a complaint pursuant to the order dated 07.04.2025, and if the police have already taken action, the order dated 07.04.2025, would not come in the way of taking up the writ petition on merits. 5. The review petition stands disposed off on the above terms. Sd/- (R. NATARAJ) JUDGE HJ List No.: 1 Sl No.: 46
