Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner could not appear before the learned trial Court as he had lost all communication with his counsel and was unable to inform him about his arrest in a case under the NDPS Act. Consequently, the learned trial Court cancelled the bail orders of the petitioner and his bail bonds and surety bonds were ordered to be forfeited to the State and petitioner was ordered to be summoned through non-bailable warrants of arrest. He further prays that the petitioner is ready and willing to join the proceedings before the Court and the impugned order dated 14.08.2025 be set aside.
