﻿Laxmilal,

﻿#releaseConnection() method is intended to return the connection back
to the connection manager. The connection manager per default will keep
persistent connections alive, which implies leaving the socket in the
established state.

Rather call #closeIdleConnections(0) method of the connection manager to
close persistent if you do not want them. #abort method is intended to
force-terminate connections. You should use it sparingly.
