Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE MANISHA BATRA. Present: Mr. Chetan Bansal, Advocate for the petitioner. ... MANISHA BATRA, J. (ORAL). 1. Petitioner is seeking quashing of order dated 14.05.2026 as passed by the Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, SBS Nagar in case arising out of FIR No.234, dated 30.10.2025, registered under Sections 420, 465, 467, 468, 471, 201 and 120-B of IPC and Section 12 of the Passports Act, at Police Station City Nawanshahr, District SBS Nagar, whereby bail of the petitioner had been cancelled and his bail bonds/surety bonds were forfeited to the State and now warrants of arrest were ordered to be issued against him for 23.07.2026. 2. It is argued by learned counsel for the petitioner that he had been regularly appearing before the learned trial Court. It is only on 14.05.2026 that he could not appear due to noting down of some wrong date of hearing. His absence was not intentional. He is ready to abide by the terms and conditions to be imposed upon them and is willing to join the HARJEET KAUR 2026.07.07 15:56 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document CRM-M-35572-2026 (O&M) -2- proceedings before the trial Court. It is, therefore, urged that the impugned order may be quashed. 3. Notice of motion. 4. Ms. Ruchika Sabherwal, learned Senior DAG, Punjab has advance notice of the petition and has submitted that there is no infirmity and illegality in the impugned order. Hence, the present petition does not deserve to be allowed. 5. This Court has heard the rival submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioner and has gone through the record. 6. On going through the record, it has been noticed that the petitioner did not appear before the learned trial Court on 14.05.2026 and his bail was cancelled due to that reason. Though, there is no illegality or infirmity in the impugned order, however, keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is now ready and willing to join the proceedings before the learned trial Court and his non-appearance does not appear to be intentional, the instant petition is disposed of by directing the petitioner to surrender before the learned trial Court on the date already fixed before it i.e. 23.07.2026. On his doing so, he shall be admitted to bail on his furnishing fresh personal as well as surety bonds to the satisfaction of the trial Court. 7. A copy of this order be given to learned trial Court for necessary compliance.
