Cr. Misc. No.M-28641 of 2016 [2] Notice of motion to Advocate General, Punjab. On the asking of the Court, Ms. Shivali, learned Assistant Advocate General, Punjab has put in appearance on behalf of the respondent-State and contested this petition. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Assistant Advocate General, Punjab appearing for the respondentState and have gone through the record. From the record, I find that the petitioner was already released on bail and he was appearing before the trial Court. He absented on 12.2.2016 in the proceedings and his bail order has been cancelled and nonbailable warrants have been issued.

Keeping in view the facts and circumstances of the present case and in view of the arguments of the learned counsel for the petitioner that the absence of the petitioner was not intentional and was only on one date, I find that no useful purpose will be served by sending the petitioner to custody till the disposal of the case which will take long time. Therefore, this criminal miscellaneous petition is allowed and the petitioner is directed to appear bore the trial Court within ten days from today and the trial Court will release him on bail to its satisfaction. September 1, 2016.
