----Appellant Versus State Of Rajasthan, Through Pp
----Respondent For Appellant(s) : Ms. Kinjal Purohit For Respondent(s) : Mr. B.R. Bishnoi, AGC HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANDEEP MEHTA HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE KULDEEP MATHUR Judgment / Order 12/07/2022 Perusal of the order-sheets and the other material placed on record indicates serious discrepancies regarding the accused appellant Birsa Singh (appellant No.1). The Sessions Judge, Sriganganagar forwarded a letter dated 25.01.2022 to this Court as per which, the accused Birsa Singh failed to appear in that Court for marking presence in the month of January, 2020 and onwards. On the basis of this letter, bailable warrant was issued against Birsa Singh vide order dated 02.03.2022 and was (Downloaded on 13/07/2022 at 08:44:06 PM) (2 of 2) [CRLA-1122/2003] forwarded to the Senior Superintendent of Police Mukatsar, Punjab for service. On 27.04.2022, proceedings under Section 446 Cr.P.C. were opened and notices were issued to the sureties.
Now an application for recalling the order dated 27.04.2022 has been moved by counsel Ms. Kinjal on behalf of the sureties. In this application, it is mentioned that the accused Birsa Singh went missing in the year 2015 and since then, he is not traceable. Apparently thus, there is a grave discrepancy because the trial court has reported that the accused Birsa Singh has stopped marking presence before it from January, 2020 onwards whereas, the sureties claim that Birsa Singh is missing since the year 2015.
Let a copy of this order be forwarded to the trial court and a report be summoned as to whether Birsa Singh appeared before it for marking presence between the year 2015-19 and if not, why report was not forwarded by the trial court to the High court in terms of the order of suspension of sentences.
Let a standing warrant of arrest be issued against Birsa Singh and shall be forwarded to the Senior Superintendent of Police, Mukatsar, Punjab, for ensuring execution thereof by the next date of hearing.
Copy of this order shall also be forwarded to the Director General of Police, Punjab for intimation through post and through e-mail.
List on 30.08.2022 for receiving compliance report. (KULDEEP MATHUR),J (SANDEEP MEHTA),J 15-Sudhir Asopa/Prashant/-
