3.

Learned State counsel submits that the FIR under Section 174-A IPC was rightly registered as the petitioner was declared proclaimed person by the trial Court for having absented.

4.

Heard.

5.

The petitioner having joined the proceedings subsequent to his being declared proclaimed person and the Court having extended his the concession of regular bail in the main complaint as well as the FIR in question, are factored to conclude that the very purpose of initiation of proclamation proceedings, that was to compel and secure his presence to face the trial and establish the rule of law, so as to ensure finalization of the proceedings, stood nonetheless achieved. 6.

In view of the foregoing, the present petition is allowed. (AMAN CHAUDHARY) JUDGE 21.11.2025 M.Kamra Whether speaking/reasoned :
