Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Public Prosecutor for the respondent No.1/State. As seen from the record, this is a case where the petitioner failed to appear before the Court, and the petition to condone her absence was dismissed. A statutory remedy is very much available to the petitioner to approach the trial Court by filing a petition to recall the warrant issued against her. Instead, she has approached this Court, seeking indulgence to exercise discretion under its inherent powers, which cannot be encouraged. 3. 4. In that view of the matter, the petitioner is at liberty to appear before the trial Court and make an application to recall the NBW issued against her by giving cogent reasons. On making such an application, the trial Judge may consider her problem and take appropriate decision over the matter, in accordance with law. With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. Pending applications, if any, shall stands closed. 5. 6. Sd/- M SRINIVAS / ASSISTANT REGISTRAR //TRUE COPY// S N OFFICER To, 1.
