The Court notes that a Section 173 CrPC report has been filed and leaves its examination to the concerned trial court, subject to the Court's previous directions. After reviewing the Chief Secretary's report submitted under paragraph 17.7 of the 2014 judgment, the Court finds no further action necessary and formally closes the proceedings.
