After advancing argument at length, learned counsel for the applicants would submit that applicants would be satisfied in case a direction is issued to the court below to consider the bail application of the applicants in terms of the decisions rendered in Amrawati and another Vs.

Learned A.G.A. would submit that the directions issued by this Court and the Hon'ble Supreme Court is binding upon the court below. A Division Bench of this Court in Brahm Singh & others vs. State of U.P. & others, 2016 (7) ADJ 151, has already issued direction to all the Sessions Judges of the State of Uttar pradesh, which is being followed. 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In regard thereto, application is disposed of as withdrawn with liberty to the applicants to file an appropriate application for bail before the court below within four weeks from date in terms of the decisions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.
