                                   Crl.M.C.No.7884 of 2024
                           ...................................................
                    Dated this the 24th day of September, 2024


                                               ORDER

Petitioner is the accused in S.T.No.406/2023 on the files of the

Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Court (Economic Offences),

Ernakulam. On 02.09.2024, the case was posted for taking a statement

under Section 313 Cr.P.C. On that day, petitioner failed to appear, and

hence non bailable warrant has been issued. Petitioner challenges the

said order issuing non bailable warrant against him.

2. I have heard Sri.G.Hariharan, the learned counsel for the petitioner as

well as Sri.Noushad K.A., the learned Public Prosecutor.

3. Petitioner alleges that on 02.09.2024, he had to appear before the

Judicial Magistrate Fast Track Court No.1 @ Magisterial Level,

Coimbatore, pursuant to a direction of the High Court of Madras, and

therefore, he could not appear before the trial court at Ernakulam in

S.T.No.406/2023.

2024:KER:70859 CRL.MC NO. 7884 OF 2024

4. Having regard to the above circumstances, I am of the view that this

Crl.M.C. can be disposed of with a direction.

5. Accordingly, if the petitioner appears before the Additional Chief Judicial

Magistrate Court (Economic Offences), Ernakulam, in S.T.No.406/2023 on

the next posting date without default and applies for recall of warrant,

the learned Magistrate shall consider the same and pass appropriate

orders recalling the warrant without undue delay.

6. To enable the petitioner to appear before the learned Magistrate, the non

bailable warrant issued against him shall be kept in abeyance till the

next posting date, in S.T.No.406/2023 on the files of the Additional

Chief Judicial Magistrate Court (Economic Offences), Ernakulam.

The Crl.M.C. is disposed of.
