And that Constitutional petition was allowed and order impugned therein was quashed on 22-8-1990, but detenu was got released from Jail and was handed over in custody to P.S. Mithiani. On our asking as to why no further action was taken on F.I.R. And suddenly the action was taken on 23-8-1990, after order of detention was quashed, no satisfactory explanation was put forward and it was done when no such statement of complainant or any other witness was recorded naming detenu as one of the accused, who was present at the time of incident. Learned counsel for petitioner has pointed out that complainant in the criminal case, who was injured, is present in the Court. Complainant was called and enquiry was made from him and he has stated before us that his further statement is not recorded by Police and since the incident had taken place at night, he had not identified any one of the assailants and has absolved detenu present in the Court saying that certainly he was not one of the assailants.
