(3.) The revisionist, dissatisfied with the interim order passed by this Court on 4.8.2010 approached the Apex Court by means of Special Leave to Appeal (Crl.) No. 7217 of 2010, which was disposed of by the Apex Court with the following order: The Special Leave Petition has been filed against the impugned interim order dated 4.8.2010 passed by the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad in Criminal Revision No. 2524 of 2010 which is coming up before the High Court on 22nd September, 2010. Since the matter is coming up before the High Court on 22nd September, 2010, this is not a fit case for interference under Article 136 of the Constitution. The Special Leave Petition is dismissed accordingly. However, we request the High Court to decide the case on the date fixed after hearing the parties concerned and not adjourn it.;
