Heard Mrs. S.B. Choudhury, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners. Also heard Mr. P. Borthakur, the learned Addl. Public Prosecutor, Assam.
2. This application has been filed under Section 528 of the BNSS, 2023 in respect of G.R. No.1186/2016 pending in the court of learned Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC), Hojai, Sankardev Nagar (Assam).
3. Both the petitioners Giyas Uddin and Sab Uddin are shown as absconders in the charge sheet alleging commission of Sessions triable offences. They, now, apprehend that if they appear before the court of JMFC, Hojai, Sankardev Nagar, they will be remanded to custody because this court does not have the jurisdiction to entertain their applications. Therefore, the petitioners have prayed that they should be given one opportunity to contest the case.
4. I have considered the submissions made by the learned counsel of both sides.
5. Since, the petitioners are interested in facing the trial, they deserve to be given adequate opportunity to that effect for the ends of justice. Therefore, their application is allowed.
6. All orders directing issue of Non-bailable Warrant of Arrest (NBWA) and P&A against the present two petitioners, namely- Giyas Uddin and Sab Uddin, are set aside.
