Arrest warrants converted to summoning by bailable warrants due to delay in complaint registration. Criminal Revision Petition dismissed.
The High Court converted the arrest warrants to summoning by bailable warrants due to the delay in complaint registration by the Enforcement Directorate. The Criminal Revision Petition was dismissed as withdrawn, with the petitioners' counsels solely seeking the warrant conversion. The petitioners were directed to appear before the lower court and submit bail bonds by a specified date, with the execution of arrest warrants stayed until then to ensure compliance with legal proceedings.
Issues: 1. Conversion of arrest warrants to bailable warrants due to delay in complaint registration by Enforcement Directorate. 2. Dismissal of Criminal Revision Petition as withdrawn. 3. Direction for petitioners to appear before the concerned Court and submit bail bonds.
Analysis:
1. The petitioners' counsels requested the High Court to convert the arrest warrants issued in a complaint registered in 2013, which was pending until 2017, to summoning by bailable warrants. They highlighted that the Enforcement Directorate had delayed filing a formal complaint until 2017, and the petitioners were not arrested during this period. The High Court, considering the circumstances, directed that the petitioners be summoned by bailable warrants instead of arrest warrants. The petitioners' counsels assured that their clients would appear before the lower court as required.
2. The High Court, after considering the contentions presented, dismissed the Criminal Revision Petition as withdrawn. The petitioners' counsels did not press the petition on its merits but solely sought the conversion of arrest warrants to bailable warrants. It was noted that in similar cases, the Court had dismissed revisions and allowed the petitioners to appear before the relevant court.
3. In the final part of the judgment, the High Court directed the petitioners to appear before the concerned court on or before a specified date. The execution of arrest warrants was stayed until the next court date, and the petitioners were instructed to submit bail bonds as required by the Trial Court. This direction ensured that the petitioners would comply with the legal proceedings and fulfill the necessary obligations to secure their appearance before the court.
