IN THE HIGH COURT OF ORISSA AT CUTTACK WPCRL No.01 of 2026 Trupti Mayee Dalai …. Petitioner Mr. Gajendranath Rout, Advocate -versus- State of Odisha and others …. Opposite Parties Mr. Sanjay Rath, Addl. Government Advocate CORAM: HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE AND HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE MURAHARI SRI RAMAN Order No. ORDER 23.02.2026 02. 1. This writ petition in the nature of habeas corpus is taken out for a direction to the opposite party Nos.1 to 3 to take appropriate steps to rescue the daughter of the petitioner, who is allegedly in the custody of opposite party No.4. 2. In pursuance of the order dated 27.01.2026 of the Court, an instruction has come to be received by Mr. Sanjay Rath, learned Addl. Government Advocate from the Inspector-in-Charge, Kujanga Police Station, Jagatsinghpur, which reveals that on 12.02.2026, the major victim girl was rescued from Sundarpada, Bhubaneswar and after her rescue, the victim by a letter in writing mentioned that of her volition she left her house. Since the girl is major, she along with her mother, i.e., the petitioner went back to her home. The petitioner also submitted a written letter indicating taking her child with her. The instruction so submitted by the IIC, Kujanga Police Station is taken on record. 3. In view of the above development, since the victim has been rescued and has been integrated in her family, this Court does not feel it appropriate to keep the instant writ petition pending as it would not subserve any fruitful purpose. 4. Accordingly, the WPCRL stands disposed of. (Harish Tandon) Chief Justice (M.S. Raman) Judge Bichi Designation: Secretary
