ORAL JUDGMENT
(PER: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE G BASAVARAJA)
The learned counsel for appellants has filed a memo for withdrawal. Same reads as hereunder:
"MEMO FOR WITHDRAWAL
The undersigned counsel appearing for the Appellants in the above appeal submits as follows:
It is submitted that, the Appellants are Accused No.2 & 3 who have been convicted by the II Additional District and Sessions Judge, Shivamogga in S.C.No.119/2022 dated 13.01.2025 & 16.01.2025 for the offences punishable under section 302 R/w 34 of IPC and Section 357(a)(3) R/w 149 of IPC.
HC-KAR
It is submitted that, Appellant No.1/Accused No.2 has already preferred an appeal before this Hon'ble Court in Criminal Appeal No.583/2025 dated 04.03.2025 along with Accused No.1 and same is pending for consideration.
Meanwhile, Appellant No.2/Accused No.3 has already preferred an appeal before this Hon'ble Court in Criminal Appeal No.1255/2025 dated 11.06.2025 and same is pending for consideration.
Since, both appellants/accused Nos.2 & 3 have already approached before this Hon'ble Court, the above appeal does not survive for consideration and therefore becomes infructuous.
WHEREFORE, this Hon'ble Court may be pleased to permit the Appellants/Accused Nos.2 & 3 to withdraw the above appeal as not pressed and further be pleased to dismiss the above appeal in the interest of justice."
Memo is taken on record.
In view of the memo, appellants are permitted to withdraw this appeal as not pressed.
HC-KAR
Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed as withdrawn.
All pending IAs, if any, shall stand disposed of.
