…Respondent
Coram : Hon’ble Mr. Justice N.S.Shekhawat Present : Mr. Parminder Walia, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Parmod Kumar, AAG, Haryana. *** N.S.Shekhawat J. (Oral)
1. The petitioner has filed the present petition under Section 528 of B.N.S.S (482 of Cr.P.C.) with a prayer to set aside the impugned order dated 10.03.2026 (Annexure P-3) passed by the Court of Additional Sessions Judge, Panchkula, whereby the bail of the petitioner was cancelled and the bail bonds and surety bonds were ordered to be forfeited to the State and the petitioner was ordered to be summoned through non-bailable warrants of arrest.
2.
Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner was falsely involved in the FIR, which was registered on 09.12.2017 and thereafter, he was ordered to be released on bail, vide order dated 01.03.2018. Learned counsel further submits that the petitioner was regularly appearing before the Trial Court and never misused the concession of bail. However, due to noting of wrong date, he could not appear before the Trial Court on 10.03.2026. Due to non-appearance of the petitioner, the Trial Court had cancelled the bail and the HITESH 2026.07.07 17:28 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document/judgment High Court, Chandigarh
CRM-M-33463-2026 -2 bail bonds and surety bonds were ordered to be forfeited to the State and the petitioner was ordered to be summoned through non-bailable warrants of arrest.
Learned counsel for the petitioner next contends that the petitioner is ready to surrender before the Court and shall join the trial proceedings. He further contends that the petitioner shall appear on each and every date of hearing, before the Trial Court and shall not absent himself during the Court proceedings.
3. Notice of motion.
4. Mr. Parmod Kumar, AAG, Haryana, who is present in the Court, accepts notice on behalf of respondent-State.
5. Learned State counsel has vehemently opposed the prayer made by
learned counsel for the petitioner on the ground that the petitioner had not appeared intentionally before the Trial Court and there is no illegality in the impugned order dated 10.03.2026 passed by Court below and the petitioner does not deserve the concession of bail.
6. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the record.
7. It is not in dispute that that the petitioner was on bail earlier and was regularly appearing before the Trial Court, however, on 10.03.2026, he could not appear before the Trial Court, as inadvertently he had noted the wrong date of hearing before the Trial Court. Thus, taking a lenient view of the matter, the petitioner is permitted to surrender before the Trial Court/Duty Magistrate within a period of two weeks from today and on his surrender, he shall be admitted to bail subject to furnishing bail bonds and surety to the satisfaction of the concerned Court.
