Order
17/03/2026
1. The instant petition has been moved on behalf of the
accused petitioner seeking quashing of the order of issuing a
warrant of arrest against him by the learned Magistrate.
2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Public
Prosecutor. Gone through the niceties of the matter.
3. Shorn of unnecessary details, the facts relevant for disposal
of the instant misc. petition are that the petitioner, along with
others, was charge-sheeted for offences under Sections 420, 467,
406, 471 and 120-B of the IPC by taking recourse to Section 299
Cr.P.C. Perhaps the petitioner was not available or was out of the
clutches of the Police. After taking cognizance of the offences, the

further. On 02.09.2016, neither the petitioner nor his counsel
appeared before the court, as a result of which, the learned
Magistrate passed an order of forefeiture of his bail bonds and
issued a warrant of arrest.
4. Since long the matter is kept pending before the trial Court
with no effective proceedings. Neither the petitioner is willing to
face the course of trial. He urges that he was banking upon his
counsel who never ever informed about forefeiture of the bail-
bonds and he has no ill-will to evade the process of law and he is
willing to face the trial.
5. Looking to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the
case, the instant misc. petition is disposed of. The petitioner is
directed to appear before the trial Court on or before 18.04.2026
and to move a regular bail application and upon doing so, he shall
be released on bail on the very same day subject to furnishing
bail bonds and sureties to the satisfaction of the learned
Magistrate.
6. Till 18.04.2026, the warrant of arrest issued against the
petitioner shall remain unexecutable upon his appearance. If
proceedings under Section 82 and 83 of Cr.P.C have been initiated
against him, the same shall be dropped. Any proceedings under
Section 446 Cr.P.C., if instituted, shall also be disposed of after
getting his reply in accordance with law.
