It is contended by the learned counsel for the applicant that on 26-02-2024, the Presiding Officer was on leave and the applicant was present through his counsel and on further dates also, but, one of the date was missed for appearance and on the said date i.e. on 23-04-2025, the non bailable warrant is issued. He submits that the non presence of the applicant is not deliberate, but, that is due to unavoidable circumstances as is mentioned in paragraph no. 15 of the application. He also added that further on one of the date, the bail bond is also forfeited. He submits that the aforesaid order may be set aside and the applicant undertakes that he will remain present on each and every date fixed before the learned trial court and would never abscond. Learned counsel for the State though has opposed the contentions abovesaid, but, he could not dispute the aforesaid facts. Considering the submissions of learned counsel for the parties and after perusal of the record, particularly, the fact that the non bailable warrant or any proceeding is for procuring the presence of the accused before the learned trial court and as per the specific averment made in paragraph no. 16 of the application, it is apparent that on one date, the applicant has failed to appear and the non bailable warrant was issued against him. In the interest of justice, both orders under challenge, are kept in abeyance. The applicant is directed to remain present on the next date fixed by the learned trial court. It is provided that if the applicant would not remain present on the next date and thereafter, on the fixed date by the learned trial court, the trial court is at liberty to proceed in accordance with law against the applicant. The instant application is hereby disposed of, accordingly. Order Date :- 19.8.2025 AKS Digitally signed by :- ANUJ KRISHNA SRIVASTAVA High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, Lucknow Bench
