4. But, today, Ms. Barman, learned Additional Senior Government Advocate has produced one notice issued to M/s Shiv Shakti Drug House by the I/C, Churaibari Watch Post, Sribhumi District, that though the seized articles have been released on zimma, vide communication dated 14.09.2026 and till date, the petitioner has not been taking zimma of the same because of the pendency of this petition.
5. Since the seized articles have already been released and the petitioner has been informed, this petition becomes infructuous, as nothing left to be decided and accordingly, this petition stands closed. However, liberty will remain with the petitioner to approach this Court again, if the seized articles have not been found in order.
6. The notice produced before the Court today by Ms. Barman shall be tagged with the record. Comparing Assistant Sd/- Robin Phukan JUDGE
