¶4After making brief submissions, Mr. Sinha submits, that if the Delhi police assures the petitioners that there is no complaint/FIR pending against them in P.S.: Farsh Bazar, Delhi, under the jurisdiction of which they reside, the petitioners would adopt their remedies as may be permissible in accordance with law.

¶5Ms. Shubhi Gupta, learned APP appearing for the State submits, that a statement to that effect has already been made vide para 5 of order dated 06.11.2024. That said, on instructions of SI Harshvardhan Arya from P.S.: Farsh Bazar, the learned APP confirms that no complaint against either of the petitioners is pending in that police station and there is no FIR registered against any of them. Accordingly, Ms. Gupta submits, that the petitioners' apprehension of arrest at the hands of the Delhi Police is only imaginary.
