The Court stated that an order of non-bailable warrant in a case of bailable offence, would cause prejudice to the petitioner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court also noted that the Magistrate overlooked the petitioner&#8217;s presence when the order dated 9-4-2025 was passed and reject the application for exemption from an appearance on the observations that the petitioner failed to comply with the bail provisions. The Court opined that the said order would be contrary to law.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court thus quashed and set aside the order dated 9-4-2025 and stated that the other prayers concerned regarding challenging the order dated 5-12-2019 of issuance of process against the petitioner, should be placed before the regular Court for further consideration on 16-6-2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The matter would next be listed on 16-6-2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Arjun Amarjeet Rampal v.
