Andhra Pradesh High Court Case Ends After Rowdy-Sheet Orders Revoked
Some people went to court to challenge police orders about opening rowdy sheets against them.
The orders were connected to an alleged attack on a Telugu Desam office.
Their lawyer said the police had not followed the rules for issuing such orders.
The Vijayawada police commissioner told the court that the orders had been withdrawn.
The court then closed the petitions after noting that withdrawal.
The report does not say whether the people were found responsible for the alleged attack.
