2. THE SUB INSPECTOR OF POLICE, KADAKKAL POLICE STATION, KOLLAM DISTRICT-691 506. R1 & R2 BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SMT. V.H.JASMINE THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 23-08-2013, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Kss V.K.MOHANAN, J.
------------------------------------------ Crl.M.C.No.3541 of 2013 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 23rd day of August, 2013 ORDER The petitioner is the accused in C.C.No.1606 of 2009 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-II, Kottarakara wherein the offence alleged is under Section 292 of IPC and according to the petitioner, though he was released on bail during the crime stage and renewed the bail from the court, subsequently he went abroad and now he apprehends, in case of his surrender before the court below, he will be sent to jail as NBW is pending against him. Therefore, the above M.C. is filed with a prayer to re-call the NBW issued against the petitioner and direct the court below to consider the bail application on the date of his surrender before that court.
2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Public Prosecutor.
3. Having regard to the facts and circumstances involved in the case, it appears that, though he was released on bail, he went abroad violating the bail condition and left Crl.M.C.No.3541 of 2013 :-2-: the jurisdiction of the trial court without the consent of that court. Consequently the court is constrained to take coercive steps to secure his presence. In the above circumstances, according to me, this Court will not be justified in re-calling the warrant issued by the court below. It is for the petitioner to convince the court the reason for his absence and seeks an order to re-call the warrant and for regular bail. In the result, this M.C. is disposed of relegating the petitioner to approach the court of Judicial First Class Magistrate-II, Kottarakara and he can surrender before the said court, if he is so advised, and seek orders to recall the NBW if any pending or for regular bail. Accordingly, there will be a direction to the learned Magistrate that, in the event of the petitioner surrenders before that court and file an application to recall the warrant or for regular bail, or both, the same shall be considered on merit and pass appropriate orders thereon, on the date of his surrender itself.
