Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE YASHVIR SINGH RATHOR Present : Mr. Harjinder Singh, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. V.D. Anand, Sr. DAG, Haryana. **** YASHVIR SINGH RATHOR , J. (Oral) 1. The petitioner is seeking quashing of order dated 14.07.2025 (Annexure P-4) whereby his non-bailable warrant has been issued due to his non-appearance in case FIR No.20 dated 20.01.2021, under Sections 20 and 29 of the NDPS Act, 1985 registered at Police Station Section 13- 17, District Panipat (Annexure P-1). It has been further prayed that an appropriate order or direction in the facts and circumstance of the case be passed. 2. Notice of motion. 3. Ms. V.D. Anand, Sr. DAG, Haryana who on advance notice is present in Court, accepts notice on behalf of the respondent-State.. 4. A perusal of the various orders passed by the Ld. Trial Court which have been annexed with the petition shows that petitioner had been regularly appearing before Trial Court when the trial was fixed for prosecution evidence. He did not appear on 05.02.2025 and 18.03.2025 Asgar Ali 2025.08.05 18:49 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document CRM-M-41768-2025 2 and on both these dates, applications were moved on his behalf seeking exemption from personal appearance and the same were allowed. On 15.05.2025, the case was transferred to some other Court presided over by Sh. Yogesh Chaudhary, Ld. Additional Sessions Judge, Panipat where he did not appear and his warrant of arrest were ordered to be issued on 02.06.2025 and subsequently on 14.07.2025, fresh non-bailable warrants have been ordered to be issued for 26.08.2025. Perusal of both these orders shows that the bail of petitioner has not been cancelled and bonds have not been forfeited. Rather, his arrest warrants have been issued only to secure his presence. Accordingly, petitioner is directed to appear before the Ld. Trial Court on the date fixed and get his presence marked. It is made clear that he shall not be taken into custody on the date fixed as neither his bail has been cancelled nor bail bonds have been forfeited. 5. The present petition is accordingly disposed of in these terms.
