Between:
B.Vijay Kumar
...Appellant
and
The State of Telangana,
Rep. by its Principal Secretary,

and 2 others.
...Respondents
JUDGMENT:
Learned counsel Sri Raja Gopallavan Tayi appears for the
petitioner.
Sri Mahesh Raje, learned Government Pleader for Home, appears
for respondents No.1 and 2.
2. The appeal under Clause 15 of the Letters Patent is directed
against the impugned judgment rendered in W.P.No.4710 of 2026 dated
02.03.2026, whereby the learned writ court declined to interfere in the
freezing of the bank account of the appellant in connection with a
criminal case in Crime No.220 of 2025 before P.S.Moinabad.
3. Learned counsel for the appellant has, however, not been able to
overcome the preliminary objection as to maintainability of this appeal
under Clause 15 of Letters Patent, as the subject matter and the relief
prayed for both relate to criminal law.
4. However, after some arguments, learned counsel for the appellant
seeks to withdraw the appeal in order to prefer modification application
before the learned writ court for seeking liberty to approach the
concerned court of criminal jurisdiction under the relevant provisions of
the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, to seek defreezing or
release of the account.
5. Learned Government Pleader for Home has, however, objected to
the prayer for seeking liberty before the learned writ court.
6. In view of the aforesaid, the writ appeal is dismissed as
withdrawn. The learned writ court while dismissing the writ petition has
already granted liberty to the appellant to avail the remedies under law.
As such, no further observations are required. There shall be no order as
to costs.
Miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall stand closed.
