He further submits that the petitioner is facing criminal trial for the offence punishable under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act. He submits that on account of unavoidable circumstances, petitioner could not appear before the learned trial Court, therefore, his bail bonds were forfeited and he was summoned through warrant of arrest and by the subsequent order, the trial Court declared the petitioner as absconder and also issued standing arrest warrant against him. Counsel submits that petitioner is ready to pay the fine amount under Section 446 Cr.P.C and he also undertakes that in future the petitioner will attend the Court proceedings on each and every date. Counsel further submits that joint application was filed by the parties before the learned trial Court on 07.01.2023.
