Order
11/12/2023
1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned
Public Prosecutor and gone through the material as made
available to this Court more particularly the judgments on
acquittal dated 17.08.2023 and 21.11.2022.
2. It is reflecting from the perusal of the record that for the
allegation of committing offence of cheating and forgery, six
persons were charge-sheeted through two different charge-
sheets. Both the cases were separately proceeded and
decided. In both the cases, all the accused persons have been
acquitted from the charges. The investigation had been kept
pending against the petitioner under sub-clause (viii) of
Section 173 of the Cr.P.C. whereafter he was charge-sheeted.
However, during the course of the proceedings due to his
absence, his bail bonds were forfeited and he was proclaimed
[2023:RJ-JD:43141] (2 of 2) [CRLMP-6905/2023]
as an absconder on 16.03.2018. The reason shown by learned
counsel for the petitioner for absence of the accused on the
date fixed before the trial Court seems to be genuine,
therefore, a lenient view would be required to be taken. Thus,
it is directed that the petitioner shall appear before the
learned trial Court on or before 12.01.2024 and move a
regular bail application.
3. Upon his appearance as well as moving a regular bail
application, the learned trial Court shall release him on bail
on the very same day; on the amount of surety and bond as
it deems appropriate.
4. Till 12.01.2024, the warrant issued against the petitioner
shall not be executed.
5. Accordingly, the instant petition is disposed of.
6. The stay petition also stands disposed of.
