It is, therefore, urged that no fresh direction is required to be given.
This fact is not being disputed by the learned counsel for the applicants.
In regard thereto, application is disposed of as withdrawn with liberty to the applicants to file an appropriate application for bail before the court below within four weeks from date in terms of the decisions rendered in Amrawati (supra) as well as Lal Kamlendra Pratap Singh (supra).
In the event, such an application is filed, it is expected that the court below shall decide/dispose of the application in terms of Amrawati (supra), Lal Kamlendra Pratap Singh (supra) and Brahm Singh (supra), strictly in accordance with law.
It is clarified that the Court has not considered the contention of the learned counsel for the applicants on merit.
