Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was on bail in the year 2002 but subsequently, NBWA was issued against him on 16th August, 2022 fixing his production on 9th February, 2022. It is further submitted that the default of the petitioner was unintentional and not deliberate and therefore, the order should be

recalled. It is further submitted that the petitioner could not know about the date fixed by the learned court below, as a result of which, the impugned order was passed and considering the fact that he was on bail, he should be directed to surrender and allowed to go on bail with conditions.

Having gone through the impugned order of issuing NBWA, the Court does not find any error or legal infirmity therein, as the learned court below correctly passed the order, however, having regard to the fact that he was on bail, the petitioner should be directed to surrender and released on bail subject to conditions imposed by the court below.

6.

Accordingly, it is ordered.

7.

In the result, the CRLMC stands dismissed. Regard being had to the facts and circumstances of the case, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned court of J.M.F.C., Ranpur on or before 23rd November, 2022 in G.R.
