ORDER : 1. These appeals stood disposed of by a coordinate Bench of this Court vide judgment dated 18.12.2019, whereby the impugned judgments and orders passed by the High Court and the Trial Court against the appellant are set aside and the matter was remanded for de novo consideration. While passing the judgment, certain directions, as contained in paragraph 22 of the judgment, were issued on the limited issue “whether, while granting free Legal Aid, the appellant was extended real and meaningful assistance or not” and for deciding other issues these appeals were kept pending. 2. It is stated by Mr. Sidharth Luthra, learned senior counsel, appointed as amicus curiae, that the accused- appellant was acquitted from all the charges on 19.03.2024, and against which no appeal is filed by the State. As such, the order of acquittal has attained finality. 3. As regards the other legal issues pending in these appeals, it would be open for the parties to raise the same in the pending writ petitions [Suo Motu Writ (Crl.) No.4/2019 and Writ Petition (C)No.565/2012], which are connected to these appeals. 4. In that view of the matter, there is no purpose of keeping these appeals alive on Board. 5. Accordingly, and in view of the subsequent developments, as recorded above, we close these appeals by making the directions in paragraph 22 of the judgment dated 18.12.2019 absolute, which shall be adhered to and followed. 6. Pending application(s), if any, shall also stand disposed of.
