At the outset, learned advocate Mr. Jay Ambani states that this petition has been preferred against the issuance of a non-bailable warrant against the present applicant in Criminal Case No. 4268 of 2018, pursuant to the warrant issued on 11.04.2023. 3. Learned advocate Mr. Jay Ambani further submits R/CR.MA/19603/2025 ORDER DATED: 24/09/2025 that, by way of this petition, the petitioner is challenging the order dated 11.04.2023 passed in Criminal Case No. 4268 of 2018, whereby a non- bailable warrant was issued. He submitted that the petitioner intends to file an appeal against the said order. However, since a non-bailable warrant has been issued, the petitioner has preferred the present petition seeking appropriate relief. Considering the above submissions and the fact that, according to learned advocate Mr. Jay Ambani, the cheque amount is Rs. 16,000/-, and the petitioner is ready and willing to deposit 20% of the cheque amount, i.e., Rs. 3,200/-, within a period of one week from today, the non-bailable warrant issued against the petitioner deserves to be stayed. 4. In view of the aforesaid submissions, as the petitioner is ready and willing to deposit 20% of the cheque amount, it is directed that upon the petitioner depositing a sum of Rs. 3,200/- R/CR.MA/19603/2025 ORDER DATED: 24/09/2025 towards 20% of the cheque amount, if any appeal is preferred against the order of conviction, the execution and operation of the impugned non- bailable warrant shall remain stayed until the petitioner’s application for bail is heard. However, in the event the petitioner fails to deposit the aforesaid 20% of the cheque amount, it shall be open to the concerned authority/Court to take appropriate action against the petitioner, and the benefit of this order shall operate only upon compliance with the condition of depositing 20% of the cheque amount. 5. With the aforesaid observations and directions, without entering into the merits of the matter, the petition is disposed of. Direct service is permitted today. (NIRZAR S.
