However, none has appeared on his behalf. I have heard counsel for the applicant and gone through the record. Leave to appeal granted.
The accused to execute a bond for attendance within two months, undertaking to appear in this court, in case the appeal is allowed. In Mahidul Sheikh v.
State of Haryana, CRM-33030-2021 in CRA-S-3632020, decided on 14-01-2022, Para 53, this Court observed, [53]. The pragmatic approach is that while granting bail with sureties, the "Court" and the "Arresting Officer" should give a choice to the accused to either furnish surety bonds or to handover a fixed deposit, or direct electronic money transfer where such facility is available, or creating a lien over his bank account. The accused should also have a further option to switch between the modes. The option lies with the accused to choose between the sureties and deposits and not with the Court or the arresting officer.
Given above, within two months, the accused shall furnish a personal bond of Rs. Ten Thousand only (INR 10,000/-)to the satisfaction of the concerned Trial Court/Duty Magistrate.
The attesting officer shall, on the reverse page of personal bonds, mention the permanent address of the accused along with the phone number(s), WhatsApp number (if any), e-mail (if any), and in case of any change, the Accused shall immediately and not later than 30 days from such modification, intimate about the change of residential address and change of phone numbers, WhatsApp number, e-mail accounts, to the Registry of this Court.
