Court Upholds Non-Bailable Warrants for Non-Compliance and Evasion, Balancing Liberty and Justice.

April 3, 2024

Case Laws     Money Laundering     HC

Money Laundering - Scheduled offences - whether the Non-Bailable Warrants (NBW) issued against the petitioner are liable to be quashed? - The High Court affirmed the trial court's decision to issue NBWs against the petitioner, citing repeated non-compliance with court summons and a deliberate avoidance of legal proceedings. The Court underscored that the issuance of NBWs was a measured response to ensure the petitioner's court appearance, given the lack of cooperation and evasion from the judicial process. - The judgment reaffirms the principle that while courts must safeguard personal liberty, they must also ensure that such liberty does not undermine the legal process or obstruct justice.
