ORDER

05.12.2022 01.

1.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel Order No.

for the State.

2.

The present challenge is to the issuance of NBWA by an order dated 20th September, 2022 passed in G.R. Case No. 125 of 2017 arising out of Kodala P.S. Case No. 103 of 2017 by the learned JMFC, Kodala on the grounds stated therein.

3.

Perused the impugned order which is at Anneuxre-1. 4.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was on bail in the year 2017 but subsequently, NBWA has been issued against him by order dated 20th September, 2022 as he defaulted in appearance but such default was unintentional. It is further submitted that due to non-appearance, the impugned order was passed and

considering the fact that he was on previous bail, the petitioner should be directed to surrender and allowed to go on bail with conditions. 5.

The Court does not find any error or legal infirmity in the impugned order dated 20th September, 2022, inasmuch as, the learned court below rightly passed the order since the petitioner defaulted on the date fixed, however, in the facts and circumstances of the case, is of the view that 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 disposed of with a direction to the petitioner to surrender before the court of JMFC, Kodala on or before 22nd December, 2022 in connection with G.R. Case No. 125 of 2017 arising out of Kodala P.S. Case No. 103 of 2017 and in the event he surrenders, the court below shall release him on bail with conditions.

8.

An urgent certified copy of this order be issued as per rules. (R.K. Pattanaik) Judge kabita
