1. On 17.4.2026, the following order was passed: ‘Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner(s) inter alia contends that the petitioner had moved an application for exemption as his wife was critically unwell and that she passed away on the 3rd day of the passing of the impugned order dated 13.02.2026. He contends that wife of the petitioner was admitted in PGI since 17.01.2026 till her demise. He relies on Annexures P-1 to P-3 to corroborate his aforesaid arguments. He further submits that petitioner is ready and willing to appear before the trial Court on the date fixed i.e. 20.04.2026 and join the stream of law. Notice of motion for 17.07.2026. In the meanwhile, subject to petitioner appearing before the trial Court on the date fixed i.e. 20.04.2026, he shall be admitted to interim bail on furnishing bail bonds/surety bonds to the satisfaction of the trial Court. The impugned order dated 13.02.2026 shall remain inoperative till 20.04.2026.’
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner, by relying upon the order ASHWANI KUMAR 2026.07.18 11:14 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
CRM-M No.20533 of 2026 -2- dated 7.7.2026 passed by Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Panchkula, has submitted that the petitioner has complied with the interim order dated 17.4.2026, and the same may accordingly be confirmed.
3. Indubitably, the complainant in the complaint filed under Section 138 of N.I. Act, 1881, is not impleaded as party in the present case.
