gross miscarriage of justice if the protection is not granted. Since the learned senior counsel for the petitioner had made motion to withdraw the petition and to take up the issue before the Hon'ble Apex Court, since it is already pending before it, we have granted him liberty to withdraw the petition and club his challenge in those petitions which are already pending before the Hon'ble Apex Court. However, at the same time, a limited relief is sought by learned senior counsel for the petitioner to protect his personal liberty till he approaches the Highest Court agitating his grievance. We do not feel that the exercise of powers under Article 226 would not permit us to exercise discretion vested in us to grant a limited relief to the petitioner, particularly when the investigation is going on since the month of October 2018 and the petitioner has been attending summons of the authorities as and when directed. Even when the petitioner approached us, he was protected since the last date of the order i.e. 1st April, 2019 and we find sufficient justification to continue the protection but since the learned senior counsel for the respondents is not ready and willing to continue his statement, we are required to issue directions to the respondents not to arrest the petitioner till 10th April, 2019, so as to enable the petitioner to approach the Apex Court.
